Oh, give us a break. Walmart brings cheaply manufactured chinese junk into the country to undercut local pricing and drive Americans out of business with their means of making a profit.. slave labor rates vs. US labor rates. This all used to be a common sense discussion before Greed overtook the political machine full bore and the politiciams stopped listening to America and started pandering to business. What's next? Why don't you go sell your mother if profit motive is all that matters?

And btw, US wages were never unreasonable. Nor is your opinion on them worth anything. They were arrived out through supply and demand. Or are you arguing that supply and demand was unfair?

This would almost be a valid argument if Walmart were the only company to sell Chinese imports.

Unions exist to disrupt supply and demand through coercive tactics. Your argument has a false premise, (the wages were not always worked out through supply and demand) and is therefore invalid. US wages were never unreasonable? Blanket accusations are almost always wrong. Take GM for example, they are PAYING LINE WORKERS A PROFESSIONALS SALARY NOT TO WORK. Sounds reasonable.
