It is completely logical, in order for a company to have BUILT their succes via something then they must have used it BEFORE they were successful and have done so more than their competitor. If they and their competitors did the same amount of something then it must not have been how they built their success, otherwise their competitors would be just as successful.

I could give a crap if you boycott WalMart or any other company. I was asking questions about the commonly held assumptions on FR, boycott don't boycott not my problem, proof of assumptions is all I was after.

I tried being straight forward, and in reply you asked questions that were clearly answered, obviously it went over your head so I had to elaborate.

The issue he's bringing up is should large retailers like Walmart and others (all are successful) use Chinese labor given the nature of the Chinese government.

You get so excited over an undefinable tenuous term ("BUILT their succes (sic)").

The issue is boycott.

You say you have no interest in that question. Then why are you trying to emotionally argue the equivalent of how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

Try to come down to Earth and discuss concrete things and follow a train of thought and respond to specific comment or argument.

As it is you are arguing with yourself in an argument you are inventing over terms such as "built success" that only you care about and define.
