Please dont leave, if you do they will be in my neighborhood
LMAO!!! I thought Chicago was a Walmart Free Zone?
These big democrat controlled cities that refused to protect their own people and infrastructure during riots and looting are going to lose a significant amount of their jobs and descend into a deeper hell then they are already in, unable to even pay their public pension debts
The one side to this story...jobs, won’t get discussed much. Around fifteen-odd Wal-Marts in the area, don’t know how many got damaged.
But here’s the thing...if you make the effort to re-open, and cover the deductibles, and accept that loss....who is to say in November (after the election)...another riot week occurs, and repeats itself. Same with the trial in Minnesota with the cops...if that’s a hung jury...more riots.
If I were Wal-Mart, I’d explain the commercial profit situation, and that I’m only willing to play this game one single time.
I have not set foot in a walmart in over 12 years. If walmart tells her to F off, I ... Still won’t set foot in a walmart.
They won’t abandon Chicago over race. But restocking entire stores gets expensive. Plywood is cheaper.
Wal-mart has more stores than most companies have employees. A store in Canada tried to unionized so they simply shut it down - permanently.
They may do the same thing in Chicago. I had an acquaintence that had a chain of small grocery stores back in the 70’s and 80’s. He opened a store in Seattle’s central district and the shoplifting was absolutely horrific. He tried to raise prices to compensate, but it was no use. I closed the store permanently.
Not all of the US is civilized.
The small retailers will never be back.
I went to my local Walmart yesterday. It was shut down. The Lowes nearby was open but the windows were boarded up.
You couldn’t pay me to shop the once Magnificent Mile again.
“ They will stay otherwise they will be called racists
I’m thinking soon that won’t be a bad thing.
Racist: someone with enough sense to avoid feral neighborhoods.
This thing thinks that businesses have an infinite supply of money, just as the federal government does, and that they don’t have to watch the bottom line.
Will ChiTown turn into another Detroit after their riots and years of demonic uhh democrat rule?
Stay tuned kiddies.
Don’t get lightfooted and run away and point at someone else.
Heh. Here in rural KY it’s business as usual. :)
Then maybe she should have released the the police to put down the rioters and arsonists. Chicago wants to be Venezuela, give them their dream until they are down to eating zoo animals and each other.
Why doesn’t Chicago just nationalize the stores and run them out of City Hall...?
Bwahahaha! LootMart
Africanized cities do not deserve to hold captive the great retail bastions of American capitalism. Let them revert to the bazars that serve the mudhut villages of Africa
Why not? Chicago and Mayor Lightfoot abandoned Walmart.
Remember Einstein’s definition of insanity?
We’ll finally see who the insane people and companies are.
Actions speak louder than words. When you prove you can protect property and lives, maybe they’ll reconsider.
