We could all take a "que" from the small city of Inglewood California,who banned together and demanded that Wal-Mart not be allowed to build one of their mega-box-stores in their neighbourhood.YEA! people of Inglewood. To answer the simple question,it is not our government {this time} that is resopnsible for Wal-Mart,but ourselves. Since when has it become all important to be able to buy the world's cheapest priced goods all in one store? Most of this stuff is from China.We have all heard the horror stories about poison dog food,tooth paste,and toys made for our kids with lead based paint. Well this all seems to be a biproduct of our own greed an the hunt for the ultimate bargin.Perhaps the government's culpability is their support of huge mega corporations at the expence of the health and benifit of everything else in this country. There are alternatives,I for one have never set foot inside of a Wal-Mart.
