believe it is an innate character flaw in all humans that we need someone to look down on and something to make ourselves feel superior to others. For some, it's their itelligence. Others, their athletic skills. Others, their ability to attract the opposite sex, musical talent, wealth, car, ect.

One of the wiser teachers I had in high school once said people tend to want people they look down on and people they look up to. I think this is what, in some ways, prompts what some think of as racism. It's not really about race, it's about some people wanting to have a readily defined group that they think they're above.

As to Wal Mart clothes - there are some things that are quality and just cost less than other places due to lack of "elite" branding. Then there are some things that are not quite the same quality as other higher priced places.

Heck, nobody worries about buying their coca cola or groceries or beer or alcohol from Wal Mart cause it's the same quality you'd buy from anywhere. (Same brands too of course).
