That beats paying a lot more today and paying a lot more later on.

Thats a really nice sound bite JB, but it don't alter the fact that American companies are more interested in investing in foreign lands than here at home.<br />How many Anerican made products do you think that Walmart sells in all of China?

Norway is a very deep socialist country. They will run themselves out of the oilfield because of their insane environmental regulations.<br /><br />Nothing is made in Norway because labor is way to expensive. The guy at Mcdonalds gets 25 dollars/hr.<br /><br />Wal Mart in China is doing pretty good. I was dissapointed that they did not sell any of the same products that they sell in the USA.<br /><br />Ken

Maybe disappointed but not surprized. Wally world is after the same not a monopoly that Exxon has and when it gets there we will see more shortages.

Darth is now an expert on motives of American companies, and TXS is an expert on monopolies, though parsing his sentence finds no sense in it.<br /><br />Bash, bash, bash. All part of the left wing conspiracy to take over the world and make it communist by cutting up all the winners to feed the losers.

wo-max, I agree Norway is no where near bankrupt. They are wallowing in billions of krones.<br /><br />I dont see how the citizens take it. The gov could cut your taxes and be in good shape for years to come. Ya'll need to revolt.<br /><br />The funny thing is that, Walmart has been accused of doing all these things for many many years. Why all of a sudden is Norway getting a conscience?<br /><br />Ken

Yea, I know I came at the wrong time. I was there Nov-Feb. Really want to go back in the summertime.<br /><br />Hope your gov can get things straight. I am not implying that the USA is. But talking to most everyone over there, many were fed up with the high taxes and the freeloaders.<br /><br />Ken
