<br/><br/> "Wal-Mart's decisions influence wages and working conditions across a wide swath of the world economy, from the shopping center of Las Vegas to the factories of Honduras and South Asia. Its business is so vital to developing countries that some send emissaries to the corporate headquarters in Bentonville, Ark., almost as if Wal-Mart were a sovereign nation." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article discusses how Wal-Mart's international ties affect prices and wages throughout the world.
