As someone who was once employed by those heartless bastards, I completely understand why people of modest means shop there, but why anyone who can afford to shop anywhere else doesn’t. They are awful for nearly every aspect of small town America, and they cost the taxpayers billions of dollars a year. They are one of the worst corporations ever, and should only be compared to a hybrid of a locust and a vampire squid on the face of humanity.

As I said, for those that need to shop there, I get it. But I’m talking about people who don’t, people who are better off.

They started the death of retail and Amazon made it happen, and now Walmarts are closing. All those unemployed Walmart workers are going to need help. Some towns don’t have anything left but a Walmart.
