Just don't complain when American companies lay off American workers and hire foreign workers to make the same product so the company can increase the value/share price a few cents or dollars. 
You have to give some to get some. 
If you own Walmart stock, you should also hope they put every mom-and-pop in this country out of business (if they haven't already), as that will help increase their profits and, in turn, the value of your stock.  
For the record, I am not arguing against any of this, as that is capitalism. For better or worse.
Guess either didn't read my post on page two of this thread and the 
last paragraph or didn't understand it...

they want: "The cheapest at any cost"...and the true cost is the
erosion of The American Middle Class...heck all Americans have had
their $$$ position in the world have eroded by outsourcing to other
countries... :(
