4. because the WalMart business plan is based in importing

Importation is very petroleum intesive and it is cheap now but it won't be cheap in the future. Thus domestically produced commodities will be more competitive. But hey, with peak oil, I don't think too many are gonna be concerned with getting cheap trash at WalMart or anywhere else for that matter.
