After this news and the report of how they treat their lowly 'associate' workers earlier this week, can anyone give a good reason why they still choose to go to Walmart and buy their Chinese crap?

Prices can't be THAT good at Walmart.

Wal-Mart is about the bottom line. Like globalization. It's tough for some to understand, but try to be a good sport and understand that greed .... for a lack of a better word... is good.

Greed is a part of capitalism that isn't discussed much. But Wal-Mart will be packed across the USA this 4th of July... even if only 4% of the non-grocery goods were American-made...nobody in America would care... because they are saving money. That is a powerful force in the world of capitalism. And as capitalism's greatest winners (multi-national corporations) grow and grow and grow... the influence of elections, politicians and laws will decrease while the goals of the globalizing forces will increase. In other words, the dollar (not the ballot box) will matter more and more. Hence the ability for Wal-Mart to regulate firearm purchases.
