WalMart has hundreds of self-branded products which actively compete with US brand-name products for sale on its own shelves. Wouldn’t this practice qualify WalMart as a manufacturer of sorts, even as the products most manufacturers produce in other industries also include components made elsewhere and by other entities as well? OTOH, many brand-name manufacturers include a notice on their products which states they are not producers of store-branded alternatives to their own products. Confusing, yes?

The only way to defeat globalist Free Traitors™ is with a really high import tariff. I say F all the ignorant myopic sub humans that want to destroy the USA's industrial base.

And I've sometimes found that I like the "house brand" product better than the "name brand".

A major plus for Walmart in my book is their policy of selling prescription drugs for prices far below the big name pharmacies. My personal example is insulin, (which can actually be sold OTC in my home state of Ohio). Rite Aid tried to sell it to me for ~$115 a vial. Walmart: $25.

Those products are probably manufactured in Asia
