It seems to me that part of Wal-Mart's plan here is to appear to exercise its market power for good, thereby deflecting focus from the key question, which is should any one company have such sweeping market power in the first place? A troubling number of environmentalists seem quite enamored with the idea of such a powerful company dictating terms to suppliers and others. But doesn't this sort of power and oversight belong in the hands of the public -- isn't it us, through our democratically elected governments, that should be setting and enforcing standards?
