    You loot the Walmart, it shuts down, a food desert starts, humans start to starve.

    Or, gasp, big government invests some local taxpayer cash to build a grocery store that serves the community.

    • 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.
