What do these critics want Wal-Mart to do? Fail? Start selling $300 shirts like Saks Fifth Avenue?

I would like to see them carry items “Made in the USA”. Maybe just one little section? Just a token gesture?

The companies that make the $300 shirts or $800 pants can't sell to walmart. First off, they don't manufacture enough $300 shirts to meet wal-mart's needs. Secondly, it would be slitting their own throats since the kind of person who buys that stuff doesn't relish the thought of seeing it on the shelves of wal-mart...
