Wal-Mart AND Workers

Using ideas from the readings as well as your own experience as a Wal-Mart shopper, write a post about how you see the compromise between low prices for consumers and low wages for employees. Is this a fair trade off? Some people can't afford to shop anywhere else, and on black friday we will see the hordes of people waiting to get the best deals. Will you be there, too? Why or why not?

Wal-Mart is well-know retail market in America as well as all over the world.
Cheap Price is the most fascinate advantage of Wal-Mart.  
And Consumers are really satisfied with their cheap price.

The experience that i ever visited wal-mart is only one time.
There is no Wal-mart in South Korea, and  I am used to go Target rather than Wal-mart. 
When i asked my friends "What is the reason that you want to go Walmart?", she said me
                         "CHEAP PRICE. The best good deal in there!!! "

But, When i got into Wal-mart, there is so messy. Some products are damaged, crumbled boxes.
It is also hard to find workers when i want to ask them or i do not know where are products.
                                         I was so disappointed Wal-mart.

Additionally, there are many unfair happens for workers such as work hard and lower wages.
Although Wal-mart is huge and beneficial market, they offer unfair treats for workers.
Many workers, who work at Wal-mart, are worried about their retirements, and they often get a second job.
There are not many workers who can take insurances and over minimum wage. 
Many workers get under minimum wages, that can make them hard to live.

The lower income make people hard to live, and they typically wait the Black Friday.
Personally, I think the Black Friday is really American culture.
Some economists said, "American Economy  created from Black Friday to new year for one month."
This is because, many people, who can not afford to buy in their life, wait the best deal, the marketing of Black Friday.
It is true sometimes there are similar sale percentage compared with before thanks giving period. 

The markertng approach of huge companies make people to but what these firms want to.
Sometimes, consumers are controlled under markets.
