Mark, Do you think Walmart invented something that would never else have happened? Consolidation in merchandising is an unstoppable trend. In our neighborhood we have Walmart, Target, Sears, Home Depot,Pennys and many specialty stores. The specialty stores survive on niche merchandising - service and knowledgable sales people.

You can rail against Walmart - it is simply one vehicle of an unstopable trend.

Progress is change. Change means winners and losers. Consumers are the winners.
