My point of view: The reason Walmart, and other corporations,are so successful is selling inexpensive products and at a fixed profit. That is what most consumers want and that enables the power to the huge Corporations. Fighting the system leads to demise. I like to think my success as a small business person is that I have learned to adapt to the trends that I cannot control. I dont try to beat them, but join them. I need to make a living and remember I have the responsiblity to employees and their families to continue to produce in a profitible manner which maintains all of our jobs. Im always paying attention to trends in our sector of the industry and try to adapt and go with those trends. I get real successful if I anticipate those trends and ready for them. If Im wrong or if I lose that edge there is a fine line between staying in business and having an auction. I cannot change focus just because its made in America. If China is making a quality product, just as good, I go with it. I have too. Also, I dont think you should appologize for your rant. I find it very interesting and it keeps people like me on my toes and in perspective. Everyone should follow the 5-P's (prior planning prevents poor performance).
