Yup John, as long as the American public continues to demand lower prices, Walmart will continue to buy from China.
Tried to find stats on exactly what percentage of Walmart merchandise is actually made in China, but it ranged from 70 to 90 percent, so meaningless on the one hand, and meaningful on the other. Would be nice to know what kind of goods (skill level required and related high value jobs), dollar values etc
If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
