a Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price film review
The title above is that of a book that came out a year after The High Cost of Low Price that wasn't supposed to be about Wally World specifically, and yet it was because Wally World accounts for such a huge proportion of the problem. Five stars for Greenwald and Brave New Films, especially for the footage from China, Bangladesh, and Honduras; for including not just "liberals" but even conservatives, Republicans, flag-wavers, and former employees from custodians to managers and trainers; and for the happy ending that flows seamlessly from the horror of the part about crime in the parking lots.

My one negative remark is that it seemed too long, and it seemed to start out too slowly, especially with the story about the hardware store.
