Synthesis of Blogs

A.)  In these articles one written from the Huffingtonpost  by Eric Holt Gimenez and the other from The Nest written by Will Allen in response to the claims made by Gimenez against Walmart.  Gimenez's claims are very strongly opposing Walmart and states that their reasons for donating money (a rather small sum of money compared to Walmart's company income) to Growing Power, a group at the head of the bringing healthy food to poorer communities, are very selfish and they only wish to gain that market and with that much more money.  Will Allen responds to the article that while he respects Gimenez's opinion, Walmart is doing so much good in the world and thinks that more people should hop on board with changing the world for the better.

B.)  Common themes from both of the articles address the good of the people and seeing a change in how people eat and providing them with healthy alternatives can lead to the initial change we need.  They both want the public to believe that their main reason for taking measures to see the health in America change is for the good of the general public and not the personal financial gain that could come from it.

C.)  They both address doing these things for the greater good and seeing health in America go up.

D.)  The first contradiction I saw was in Will Allen's comments on how Walmart is really looking out for best interests of the people but when has Walmart ever put people first before money in shutting down so many small businesses and paying their workers non livable salaries.
