Why are you hating on walmart for being brutally efficient?

The same complaints you have in your Lyndon Larouche article can be levelled at ANY US corporation that uses cheap foreign materials and labor to service local demand.

The US has been outsourcing and globalizing its operations since the Oil Crisis of the 1970's--but US Income and Productivity keep rising.

Walmart is here to stay. Big Box stores are here to stay. Either we look at change in the eye and PROFIT from it (by reinvesting in ourselves, retooling our skills) or PERISH from it (must suck to be a buggy driver when cars came around).
