Well, I guess I'm some kind of hybrid supporter or something. For example, I don't mind buying Hyundai/Kia because they have both opened plants here within 1.5-2 hrs from me--1 in AL and 1 in GA. They are employing hundreds, if not thousands of local people to work in their plants. Also, the US may not get profits from the sale of the foreign cars, but the salespeople, technicians, managers, etc all make a nice living working at the dealerships, which are probably owned by an American. As for Walmart, I hate the store mostly because of the weirdos that I tend to encounter there. I dislike the products, and rarely buy more than toilettries there. My wife's cousin was out of work for 2 years and corporate hired her with a fat salary last year, so that's the other side of the dilemma for me.
