Yeah, Adam, you're right, to a degree (I say). Small stores are vaporizing like farts in the wind because they're smaller, more expensive and can'tcompete with the big guys because of that (and selection isn't going to be as good). But, those small stores were all we had until recent history and theywere/are everywhere. Smaller towns (Danville, CA, where I was raised and crashed alot of cars, Havasu City, AZ, San Luis Obispo, etc.) have them in the voidsand shadows of hulking Home Depots and Wal-Marts which are currently sprouting. But...that's my experience and our land is wide and varied.

I understood what he said. He said people complain about Wal-Mart and their policies but keep on shopping there anyways.

Walmart doesn't buy only from China. Milk , cookies, chips, etc.. That's all from here in the USA. In some areas, Walmarts sell more items like meatand vegetables. That stuff comes from the USA. They are cheaper than everyone else. Yes. You have to be an idiot or loaded to go out of your way and paymore money for your items. Also there are plenty of other stores that have stuff from China. I like Walmart. My kid works for Walmart in electronics. Hecomes across all types. Well, he came across all types of people too when he worked for Target and also when he worked for a supermarket on Long Island calledGuinta's MEAT FARM.<br><br>Like Adam said, why go to 5 stores when you can get everything at one. <br><br>If the gov't wants to curb the import of Chinese goods than they have to do what Argentina did, a tax on ALL imported goods. People over there still buyimported goods but they have to pay a premium. Instead of buying a Sony Playstation, they have the option of buying an electronics video system that is madein Argentina. (I don't recall the name of that system now.) Don't just pick on Walmart. Chinese items are everywhere.<br><br>maribell
