Sounds good, but it depends on each individual market's management whether they'll have their lowly peons do the extra work of undoing that every time.

The workers would still be paid for the re-facing of the product. Maybe the store would realise that USA made products aren't worth stocking if there's more wages required to fix up the shelf aesthetics. Workers are employed to work, if there isn't work they'll get sent home or have their shifts shortened. I don't mind having to work at work, it's what they're paying me for.
