You know that the town existed before Walmart, right?

You know that Walmart crushed the small mom and pop shops that existed before Walmart?

You know that Walmart is a parasite?

I am aware it is a parasite.

I am also aware that after it shuts down because of crime, investors won’t be in a rush to start up another store. Leaving everybody in a small town fucked.

I am also trying to highlight that one Republican town fixed the problem by building a government owned grocery store after their dollar tree shut down.
