This is still capitalism and companies should be able to do whatever they want. I also have no problem with people boycotting wal-mart or people protesting against them comming to their town because that is also their right. If enough people stop buying there then things would change but the fact is they are the bsest at what they do.

Good post. I also don't have a problem if a town DOESN'T want a big store because of potential traffic problems, loss of a rural scenery or if they just love their small businesses. They need legitimate reasons not to give WAL*MART their business though, not because they saw some lying movie about how WAL*MART is "evil".

Is it THAT hard to think these days? I guess so...

or because walmart demands free land, free construction (parking lots, roads etc), and to be paid to come into town.
