This paper explains that Wal-Mart, in the search for cheaper goods, aggressively pushes its suppliers to cut wholesale cost, causing factory jobs to move from one poverty-stricken nation to another and failing to meet the labor standards set by human and labor rights activists and yet attained by other prominent companies. The author points out that, although Wal-Mart provides job opportunity, lower prices and quality of products, it has a negative effect on a community because the smaller retail companies and companies that provide employee benefits can not compete with its prices. The paper states that the only hope that this economic community can recover from the "Wal-Mart effect" is in the negotiation of benefits for Wal-Mart workers and better treatment of its' third-world" employees.
