    Walmart has enough capital on hand to work at a loss for a long long time before it’s an issue. How would their competitors compete when they can’t beat Walmarts prices?

    Walmart has already done this with grocery stores in areas in the modern day. Lower their prices to the point of operating at a loss locally to drive the competition out of business and once their gone then bring the prices back up.

        With our current levels of regulations.

        Less regulations would only make things worse not better.

              We’ve consistently had more regulations since the 1950’s and life is getting more unaffordable and corporations are getting more power.

                  Why are you making excuses for the current system when the current system is the thing that is flawed?

                  Turn that critical eye of yours towards that and start criticizing, not me who is just trying to propose a solution.

                    The current system is flawed. It needs to be more strict on big business. Why would being less strict on big business help?
