More to the point, the Mom and Pops never treated their employees any better than Walmart or TSC, they never had prices that were nearly as good and it was for the same or worse junk. When 2 M+Ps competed it was go for the throat and no holds barred until 1 remained and then prices went up.
Today is not 1965 or 1955. No one sells American made anything because we don't make anything anymore. No one gets a job at Sears or Monkey Wards out of high school and sends the next 40 years selling tools or appliances or shoes. The repair man, the doctor and milkman don't make house calls anymore.

Even if companies would relocate here, our population can't afford to buy American made goods at the Dollar Store. They'd cost $10 or 15.00. It's a different paradigm and until we decide to change it this is the direction we're headed. Walmart will eventually die off. Before Walmart was Kmart, Zayres, Ames, Jamesway, etc. and before that was Sears, MW, Pennys, Western Auto and Grants, Before that was Woolworths and the Mom and Pops and before that you made it yourself or did without. Times change.
