Don't like Walmart? Go shop at Costco. Free of choice also means freedom to vote with your feet. Nobody is forcing you to shop at Walmart.
Personally, I'm very proud of Walmart, Microsoft, etc. They represent the best of breed of American capitalism. I'd like to see a Walmart on every street corner in India and China.
