Why do people complain about having shops like Walmart?

Seriously, I remember that when I was small our parents always had a trouble getting food or clothes in the town I grew up. I remember having to que for fruit for several hours, taking turns with my Mom to run home to the toilet (pardon me) so we don't loose our line. We were not poor, but that's how things were in my country at that time. My Mom had to befriend sales people in shops so that they sell her some meat later for me and my little brother. I live in Europe now and enjoy every second of my shopping (no matter what shop it is) and think that people in rich countries simply create problems out of nothing. Okay, so some companies outsource their operations to Romania or China. It's better for them for economical reasons. It is tough, but it's not like you will stay unemployed forever. Why not be grateful for what you have?

Answers:
Very often it is the owner of a small business that complains about walmart. They fear they are going be out done by walmart because walmart can sell the same products for less. While this does happen but you will find people are sometimes more comfortable with old problems than new solutions. Not everyone in the US is spoiled, I think a lot of people have negative attitudes about money. People get scared of things like walmart or outsourcing because they were taught that there just isn't enough money to go around. It's not coincidence that this attitude leaves you broke. So that's the perspective of an American who does his best to appreciate what he has.

Actually some people think that Wal-Mart is ghetto, but there are some Wal-Mart's that are nice and clean like the one in Roseville California. I think people like Wal-Marts and Targets. But the main people who hate Wal-Mart's are the people who own these little stores that have to fiercely compete with Wal-Mart. I say that competition is a good thing. Computer operating systems would be better if there was more of a competition, instead of Bill Gates' Windows hogging the OS market.
I think Wal-mart is great. And in the small town I live in , Walmart is all we have, So Most pple don't know of anything else! Wal-mart is a fast growing company, So if there are pple out there that don't like them, They should start looking around, there are poppin up everywhere.
