One is just as bad as the other. In fact, I think I trust the Red Chinese more.
Neither are friends of the United States.
Have you noticed the flooding and blizzards in northern China lately?
Has to be screwing up production and transportation.
All of that water that has been turned into steam and sent into the atmosphere by volcanoes has been coming down, evaporating more if over land and coming down over and over.
I don’t shop at Walmart. The stores are zoos.
Isn’t there already an India Mart?
Good. India has a lot of problems but is probably the most successful western-style country in the region. Of course, it constantly has to defend itself from its own and neighboring Muslim populations…
But it’s a lot better than China on any level.
Ask yourself the question: If your ‘generic’ medication that you rely on was manufactured in India or China, which country would you pick? Not so sure I’d pick a chicom drug.
I only buy national brands when I occasionally buy at Walmart, and that mostly via online purchases if they have the best price. Don’t like going to the stores, as there are many “marginal” people there.
“The world’s largest retailer shipped one quarter of its U.S. imports from India between January and August this year”
I have noticed an increase, but not to 25%.
Of course, in current Walmart style, it may not have been placed on the shelves.
How about they try to find American manufacturers? We don’t need products from another enemy, paying for them to oppose us, invade us, destroy us.
I’ll take India meds over Chinese meds any day.
I’m old enough to remember Sam Walton saying “Made in America” is the only way Wal*Mart will go.
Apple is moving their manufacturing to Vietnam and India.
It’s about time. I try very hard not to buy Chinese products.
Maybe it will cost more in the short term, but the long term benefits of American workers paying into American infrastructure and military, less government dependence, and future opportunities for our children would work out a lot better than what we have now.
Even if it means we would have to do without buying the latest and greatest TV set every year.
Walmart is a major bellwether of the flight of global manufacturing out of China.
Walmart was among the earliest and largest companies to set up manufacturing facilities in China, for their global retailing business. Walmart stores sell all over the world, not just in the United States. If Walmart were it’s own country, it would have been China’s tenth biggest trading partner, at its height.
If Walmart leaves China, somebody shut off the lights behind them. Party’s over.
About frickin’ time.
IIRC-—recently, 52 different “EYE DROPS” were recalled due to contamination.
ALL FROM INDIA.
It's a good trend, but 60% is still way too high.
