Walmart

Started in 1962 by Sam Walton, Walmart has 10,585 stores and clubs in 46 different countries. The name is different in many countries, and for example, in India, it is Flipkart.

Walmart produces the largest revenue of any company in the world. The significant revenue is needed as it makes only about 2.4% profit on this revenue.

My observations after shopping at Walmart were that a large portion of the products sold were items that were not needed - junk! As is typical for an American, the foods sold were particularly bad for the most part and cater to people with junk food diets. Going into the store in many ways gives a microcosm of how poor American people live.
