Scott was asking me what items were at Target or Meijers that were not at Walmart in response to me saying that there is a lack of items made int he USA at Walmart these days. I looked at all 3 web site and Walmart was the only one that listed any sort of origin information, though ever one said US and or import. WTF does that mean? Either it is made in the USA or it isn't. Kinda sounded like a display to say they do it but put completely useless information in it. I would say that it is fair game since Made in USA used to be their shtick when Sam was still alive. It didn't take long for the Walton family to cozy up to the Chinese after he died. It's one thing to carry items made in China (or elsewhere fro that matter) but it is completely different when a major retailer has a preference for them...especially when said retailer drives out all the competition.
