WALMART TO LAUNCH 'OPERATION ROLLBACK PRICES' TO PACIFY INGLEWOOD

Refusing to give in to 'insurgent' workers who rallied to defeat Wal-Mart's plans to set up a Supercenter in Inglewood, California, Wal-Mart is aggressively pushing a new plan to 'pacify' Inglewood and other 'troublesome' areas in the so-called 'Cali Triangle'. Operation Rollback Prices, to be launched with all
the pricing power that Wal-Mart has to bear, will seek to salvage the SuperRetailers overall plan to expand from rural and suburban America into the heart of its major metropolii. Critics, however, contend that the plan entails use of 'excessive force' and will ultimately embolden the local populace.
