News New Yorkers Support Walmart?
Posted by Henry Stewart on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 12:24 PM
The carefully worded question read in full:
Some people say Wal-mart should be allowed to open stores in New York City because it would provide jobs and its lower prices would benefit New Yorkers who would shop there. Other people [hey that's us!] are against allowing Wal-mart to open stores in New York City because its lower prices hurt small neighborhood businesses and Wal-mart doesn't offer its workers enough in wages and benefits. What do you think? Should Wal-Mart be allowed to open stores within New York City, or not?
Walmart has been courting locals and officials behind the scenes, hoping to win support for a store in East New York or another location.
