It's not a problem either. Oh noes, lower costs of production! More efficient business practices!

If by lower costs of production you mean firing a ton of people and lowering salaries so that real wages end up going down even though prices drop then yeah. And it's a problem.

[/ QUOTE ]

A problem for who? Not me! A lot more people *shop* at wal-mart than work there (or for their suppliers).

When in doubt, change the argument!

[/ QUOTE ]

What am I changing? I'm merely asking who this is a problem for.

[ QUOTE ]
The "problem" is not the low prices. It is that the prices get jacked up to higher levels once the competing firm exits the market.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't see *that* as a problem either.

Then say high prices for consumers is not a problem rather than taking the easy route and saying that the only problem is "low prices".
