Now that is getting carried away.  Although I don't shop at Walmart, I 
do know they sell merchandise which is needed.  What useless c*** are 
you referring to?  They sell pretty much what most dept stores do and 
more.

And if that is the case, how can you make negative comments about those 
who do shop there?

That's the freedom allowed in N/A and isn't it wonderful :-)

Ok, I'm getting the jest about this whole thing, yet which chains don't 
sell imported products?  Or rather, even the small independent shops for 
that matter.  I'd imagine that Walmart sells cast Wagner frying pans 
like everyone else does?

I tend to agree with you, but I feel WalMart is being unfairly singled 
out...

So you're saying that the local arts & crafts aren't crap, yet the 
products Walmart sells are?   So if I need new jeans/shirts or a 
microwave/tv/radio I can get it locally made at the Brattleboro flea 
market/shops? 

Hardly...
