The issue is that the only way to continue to sell stuff at the prices Walmart insists on selling at is to send the production overseas. The threat made by Walmat is that if the company does not sell at their artificialy low prices, Walmart will make the product itself, thus forcing said company out of an enourmous slice of market share, and quite possibly business altogether.
I am rather suprised to see the "invisible hand" crowd overlooking a aberation every bit as severe as price-fixing is on the other extreme.
