After watching the Food Inc. documentary, it reminded me of the Wal-Mart documentary which I watched in another class. A lot of it has to do on how they miss treat their workers. In one part of the video it talks about how Wal-Mart ignores a black man who complains about other coworkers who are making racist comments about him to his face and play pranks on him because the color of his skin. It is really surprising to me that at places that are so successful, they can turn a blind eye to the mistreatment of patients that make their company so successful by putting up with the fact that they are asked to stay and work overtime without being paid for it which is illegal. We as a society need to stand up and put a stop to these companies so that everyone can have a better life. It’s not hard to do because as seen in the film people all over the country have started to protest the building of Wal-marts in their towns and have won.
