Is Walmart the biggest threat facing primary care?

Walmart is experimenting with opening primary care clinics. Although they say they’re focusing on rural areas, I bet they’ll try to expand into urban areas if they can show it’s profitable. I am against this. Although I love Walmart and am appreciative for them giving me my first job out of high school and for offering me low prices on everyday items, I am a firm believer that healthcare should not be run by for profit corporations. There are ethical issues, such as running too many tests... Is Walmart the biggest threat facing primary care?
