When you put it that way, it sounds like Walmart is doing them a great service. Keeping them off the street. And saving the taxpayers welfare dollars at the same time.

Walmart's MO was to setup shop in towns, undercut the competition until there was no competition left and then raise prices. A great service indeed.

Did you know that people who profit from child labor help hungry kids eat?
