clo,

re: "You continue to err with regard to where I stand"

It would be helpful if you were to say where I err... and where you actually stand if it's not where I'm saying.

Merely stating AGAIN that you don't shop at Wal-mart doesn't cut it. Not when I've just noted that Wal-mart isn't the problem. Federal policies that allow China to compete unfairly (meaning, they don't have the hurdles that American businesses have) are the problem. Wal-mart is selling these Chinese goods, and THAT is the reason you're blaming it for dooming Ameircan small busineses.

The playing field needs to be leveled. The Federal government must impose tariffs against Chinese goods sold here to make the price of their goods comparable to what goods made in the U.S. sell for. It also needs to decrease the regulatory barriers that make it so difficult for American businesses to compete.

BLAME THE GOVERNMENT, not the opportunists. If Wal-mart weren't the primary American beneficiary of the advantages China has here, some other company would be.

Decomp,

"So, clo, it's your own love for the current way of doing things that is dooming these small businesses."

You continue to err with regard to where I stand & what I believe.
Remember, I am the shopper that refuses to support Walmart because of many of the reasons you list.

Do you shop at Walmart?
If so, YOU are a person that contributes to the demise of American jobs.
