Walmart is indeeed a great retailer. You seem to have a problem with them, but they have lowered the cost of many items. \
China is not just sold in Walmart. Go to RadioShack, or BestBuy, go to any clothing chain, or hardware store. Check out the local furniture shop. What used to be made in NC, is now coming from Kaitung...
The average American makes twenty times what a Chinese does, and spends it the same way. First for a roof overhead, then food, then comes everything else. We have a lot more for everything else... and thanks to our needs, so do the Chinese, now... But, we have given them technology for free, and that is the biggest danger... Loral, et al, were FOB's, and Billary sold out our soul, and our secrets! We just pay for it, now and in the future!
