The cartoon of the girl shopping to help the economy kind of hit home. I work at Walmart and see first hand how shoppers help my fellow employees and myself stay employed and get hours. As sad as it is for me to say… Shoppers really do help the economy! However, as a shopper, it does hurt too!! The economy IS suffering right now. People do not really have the extra money to shop like we used to. The lack of funding hurts us all!! Without shoppers, (as one who works in retail) hours get cut and then we are forced to use our “extra” money to pay bills and rent. Something needs to give. The only question is: What?
