Quantitive research is a collection data that is utilized to describe, prdeict, explain the many areas of interest that may affect business efforts.

Wal-Mart has brought more jobs to China than the U.S. with more than 5,000 lawsuits towards illegally dumping hazardous waste and low wages.

They are making a very conscious and obvious effort to engineer the "legacy" of "generous motors" out of their business models. In times like these, it would not be biting the hand that feeds us to make a studied effort at deep "cutbacks" in our consumption of
