Wal-Mart's relentless pressure can crush the companies it does business with and force them to send jobs overseas. Are we shopping our way straight to the unemployment line?

You can say the same thing about GM and those that supply it. Yet you don't hear the union goons complaining about the automaker. I say more power to Walmart. A retailer that has only the best interests of its customers at heart.

I'm with you. Articles like this conjure up an image of a squalling toddler being towed in his Radio Flyer against his wishes all the way to prosperity. If there are enough 'fair traders' and WalMart-haters anxious to pay more for their goods at mom-and-pop stores, then it will happen and they will get what they want. Letting the other guy do it gets what we got.
