The IRONIC this is...
Walmart. We all got to Walmart because of the cheap prices, heck we save. Yet is anything made in America in Walmart? So while our economy is in a transitional phase and there is still a middle class (something that might not last forever) then we seem to benefit from the cheap over seas labor. What will eventually become clear, and very IRONIC is gradually we will find that we go more and more too Walmart, not because we choose to save, but rather because we simply can not afford anything priced higher. Walmart will not be a place of savings but a place where our wages will barely allow us too shop....Just barely that is.

Hey why don't the drug companies send all their production and research over sea's (as if they already haven't) and then sell in mass qauntities to Walmart/SAM's and they we can all have cheap drugs!?! If it works for jeans, then it should work for drugs. Reduced costs in labor and research should, and qauntity purchases should reduce prices...right!?!
