Realist,
You really don't get it. There is a bigger issue here than being able to buy junk at cheaper prices. Walmarts have destroyed small towns all across America. It has been going on for about 20 years. And people have unwittingly supported it for the exact reason you gave. "I want a cheaper can opener." , etc. Well there is a bigger price to pay if you do that. It destroys the economic health of your town. Don Anderson's article is a perfect example of how they do it. You might also do a search on "walmart saturation effect". Walmart is NOT something to support.
