Gee, Isn't Wal-mart Great!

Walmart is indeeed a great retailer. You seem to have a problem with them, but they have lowered the cost of many items. \

China is not just sold in Walmart. Go to RadioShack, or BestBuy, go to any clothing chain, or hardware store. Check out the local furniture shop. What used to be made in NC, is now coming from Kaitung...

The average American makes twenty times what a Chinese does, and spends it the same way. First for a roof overhead, then food, then comes everything else. We have a lot more for everything else... and thanks to our needs, so do the Chinese, now... But, we have given them technology for free, and that is the biggest danger... Loral, et al, were FOB's, and Billary sold out our soul, and our secrets! We just pay for it, now and in the future!

RE: problem with Wal-mart.
Not really they are a mass mechanizers par excellence, the stores are clean, and they honor their guarantee's.
But when you achieve that positon of dominance, climb out of the rat race, then your duty as an American company is look out for us. There's more to life than a bank account.
If the response is that they are a global company, then I recognize that.
If they don't use their buying power to stop the prosecutions of people of Faith, shame on them.
I for one refuse to numb myself from the cries of my brethren.
