In Defense of Wal
Mr. ANDREW YOUNG (Chairman of Steering Committee,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/[/b][/url], Working Families for Wal-Mart): They brought in new wealth. They generated new job opportunities. They created opportunities for new suppliers. They made a lot of money. Poverty is good business. The way to deal with the problems of the poor is through private investment, through small business,[url=http://merrellshoesusaonline.blogspot.com/][b]merrell shoes usa online[/b][/url], through big business. The black community was almost a trillion dollar economy. If you add to that the poor white economy in the small towns and rural areas,[url=http://giuseppezanottioutletonline.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti outlet online[/b][/url], you probably have another trillion dollar economy that's underserved.
Mr. YOUNG: I did. I was there last year trying to bring Wal-Mart into Nigeria. They asked me if I would consider doing this and I just said, sure. And one of the reasons is that I did a similar job for Nike. You remember all of the talk about child labor and sweatshops. I actually went to China. I went to Vietnam. I went to Indonesia, and I studied the situation for myself. I wrote a lot of recommendations for Nike, all of which they adhered to. I think Wal-Mart is the same way. There are problems when you have anybody that employees more than a million people. But the problems in Wal-Mart are nothing compared to the problems that these people had before Wal-Mart got there.
GORDON: Well, Andy, let me stop you there and ask you in terms of just reconciling. Let's take Nike and Wal-Mart as a for instance. You talked about all of the monies that stay in the community through Nike, yet there were those who were concerned about the literal death of young people because of those $100 shoes, the pressure it put on poor parents to buy them. In Wal-Mart's case,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada outlet[/b][/url], it's the question of anti-labor practices, big stick mentality pushing small business out of regions that they go to.
Whereas,[url=http://duveticapiumini.olimx.com/][b]http://duveticapiumini.olimx.com/[/b][/url], organized labor essentially has directed its tactics toward wealth redistribution. Now,[url=http://giuseppezanottioutletonline.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti outlet online Guseppe Zanotti Official Sale giuseppe zanotti outlet[/b][/url], that was fine in the '50s in the '60s. But the truth of it is in a declining economy,[url=http://giuseppezanottimenssneakers.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti sneakers men 2013[/b][/url], I'm not saying that labor is responsible,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica down jackets online sale[/b][/url], but certainly they have contributed to the demise of the airline industry. They've contributed to difficulties in the automobile industry,[url=http://parajumpersjacketsstores.blogspot.com/][b]parajumpers jackets store[/b][/url], because short term decisions impact long term contracts and values. I just think we've got to rethink what we think of as the right thing to do.
Mr. YOUNG: Tell them to go there and try to live there themselves. I mean, you know, we live in our bourgeoisie homes, drive our fancy cars, and really just take for granted such a high quality of life. And then we're going to get righteous when other people want to live that way? Africa does not mind food. I mean,[url=http://parajumpersjacketsstores.blogspot.com/][b]http://parajumpersjacketsstores.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], people are dying of AIDS,[url=http://giuseppezanottioutletonline.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti outlet online Sale[/b][/url], yes, but more people are dying of hunger, and even the AIDS deaths come about--the AIDS and malaria deaths come around because you don't have enough in your diet to build up your immune system.
Mr. YOUNG: Well, the United Nations is nothing more than the sum of its parts. When we were there and the Carter Administration had good ideas and was working with the rest of the world,[url=http://duveticajacketsoutlet.olimx.com/][b]http://duveticajacketsoutlet.olimx.com/[/b][/url], and we never had to send in any troops. We never got anybody killed. I mean, I had to go to Africa by myself, without even a company of police,[url=http://authenticrogerviviershoes.halod.com/][b]sell discount authentic roger vivier shoes for sale[/b][/url], but my mandate was the talk with Nigeria,[url=http://discountsoccercleatsonline.webmium.com/][b]discount soccer cleats online Footwear Soccer Cleats Soccer Shoes[/b][/url], talk with Julius Nyerere in Tanzania,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada[/b][/url], talk with South Africa and to see what we could do to bring people together. for the better for the rest of the world.
