That wasn't really my point at all. My point was that when Wal-Mart came to the larger cities they were almost EXCLUSIVELY American-made products and that was how they got my business in the first place!

I remember a Reader's Digest in the '80s (we used to get it then) had an article about this store called Wal-Mart. I didn't know what they were. But I read it and indeed, a big deal in the article was the fact "everything is American-made"! Even cute pix of a product with a "Made in USA" stamp on it!

How far they've gone away.

Not that I mind. I just don't like the turn-coat part of it.

OK, I understand. I've only had experience with WalMart for less than 10 years, so I have noticed no changes in them.
