Yeah, I think that saying shopping at Wal-Mart is "beneficial" might be a bit of a stretch, I just mean to say that when someone says "shop at a locally owned store so your money stays local" they're really saying "shop in my store so I get your money". What most people don't realise is that their pension plan (called super in Australia, 401k or something in US?) probably owns a bunch of shares in Wal-Mart, so you may as well shop there if you're a part owner.
