Now THAT's a subject I really could NOT write about. Too close to home! Only the opposite happened. My town had a chance to bring a Wal-mart here, but MA liberal refugees told them to take their Wal-Mart and shove it, 'cause it would hurt the small businesses. Bull...stuff.
Wal-Mart went across the river to NH where they don't have so many rules about companies that no companies wanna stay here. All the small businesses followed it, because people come from miles and miles around to go to Wal-Mart. My town used to be booming...now there are empty stores all along the main street and the jobs just keep leaving. I'm probably going to have to get a job in NH (not that it breaks my heart any)...there aren't any here.
