68. Let me be clear, I do not shop at Walmart. But I understand when people do.

We are caught in a catch 22. Walmart imports products from China and sells them for a low price. This hurts American workers who then loose wages in the cost of living struggle. These workers and the poor must by from Walmart out of necessity.

I try to support American businesses and the local stores but it gets harder and harder. I try to support Powell Books and not Amazon, etc. But I see it as a losing battle.
