Should we just put Toyota and Walmart in the same bin?

Since WalMart and Toyota's business practices are very similiar, shouldn't we just categorize them as one and the same? They are essentially rated the same by the almighty Consumer Reports.
 
Walmart and Toyota have absolutely nothing in common. Toyota made some bad calls in designing their vehicles, and possibly knew it ahead of production. What has Walmart done? Given us competition, for without this, we'd be paying much more for everyday items.
They came up with ideas K-Mart and Sears wish they had, as they both fell off the top of the heap. Walmart innovated ordering at the point of sale, at the register, doing away with a person's errors, came up with bar codes on trucking to keep tabs on merchandise, bought overseas bypassing unions here and rediculous yearly healthcare increases, and gave millions a job.
Show me the similarities.
