Didn’t this happen to a Walmart in a small town? The Walmart took over all the small business and employed most of them, so when they pulled out of the area because of theft it took all the remaining jobs away?

Daily Mail Link

I found this article but it’s daily mail and doesn’t talk in depth about it.

I think this might be it? However it doesn’t comment on loss of local jobs…
