Walmart compete with Whole Paycheck? Surely, you jest. EVERYONE! can
compete with WF. WFs prices are ridiculous. Better still, my local
City Market (Kroger) is even cheaper than WM.

As for WM saving the US farmer, I don't see it. Sure, WM might save a
few farms from going under at first, but WMs brutal pricing strategy,
which dictates lower prices each successive year, will do the farmer no
favors in the long run.
