Actually, I could see more work going to the Swifts and Schneider's of the world, and a lot of mid-size and smaller firms getting shut out of Wal-Mart work. Would that be good/bad? Any thoughts?

That's how around here WalMart either put businesses out, or forced them to import from China. They started buying from the mills, and after they had the vast majority of the companies business, WalMart told them how much they would pay for their goods. There are now 100's of empty factories in this area, thanks to WalMart, and free trade with 3rd world countries that pay pennies an hour.

I know every company would like to be a monopoly, but being one is not good for the citizens, for once you gain monopoly status, you charge what you want, and control your suppliers, because they have no one else to sell to.mycorky, johnday and Beechvtail Thank this. -
yeah, but you can get 2 bags of Cheetos for $4.

I don't go to WalMart unless there is no other choice anywhere. I will pay $4.00 for my potato chips, or do without, before going there.
Freebird135, squirrellsgnwild, mycorky and 4 others Thank this.
