26. Don't forget Walmart...

which may have favored trading status, by virtue of politics, with a "Communist"/corporatist nation where the normal rules of capitalistic competition don't apply. This allows them to offer lower prices, and provides an unfair advantage to anyone who tries to compete on their playing field. Given the depressed status of their customers and the jobless environment for their employees, lower prices suit their needs well and they don't have to pay very good wages.
