[QUOTE="Adhdferret, post: 4096164, member: 48008"] Yeah, they definitely do, so they can keep all that money in house. Walmart also owns the company that builds their stores, so they can lease it to themselves and deduct that cost from their taxes. It is a big club, and we aint in it. Did you notice around 2000 they really began to close all their older stores to switch into super centers, and then mid 2000s they did that neighborhood market BS? They ditched the bonus thing too, where each store had a cap and over that each employee got a percentage? 1000 dollar bonus after taxes wasn't that irregular. They slowly privatized profits and socialized losses. Then they just pushed every single bit of competition out, saw some documentary about how Walmart operates. You should go to Bentonville AR and see their complex, it is a sight if you look at it like you want to understand it. Most of their vendors are in tiny strip malls near the head quarters. Walmart knows exactly to the fraction of a cent what the suppliers make on each item. They say we will pay this and that is it, if they decline....poof they gone and Walmart will get someone else that fast. Like Rubbermaid Memeber how they used to be a staple in Walmart? Now you don't see them? Look up why and how. [/QUOTE]
