There is a difference between calling a liberal that supports unions blocking a grocery store they don’t like and you calling freepers drunks.
The “communities” that you are talking about are the biggest cities in the nation, in the size of millions, it is powerful, left wing politics that keeps out Walmart supercenters, not the people.
As you point out, Walmart has a conservative base and gives money to conservative causes, what they do not have is the support of liberals and you, to compete freely in the marketplace.
“There is a difference between calling a liberal that supports unions blocking a grocery store they dont like and you calling freepers drunks.”
I’ve never tried to stop a grocery store and I never called freepers ‘drunks’. I called you a drunk.
“The communities that you are talking about are the biggest cities in the nation, “
Really? Well we have the stores here. But it seems those people are getting along fine without them. Perhaps if htey really wanted a walmart they would move somewhere with them.
“what they do not have is the support of liberals and you, to compete freely in the marketplace.”
Yep, little ole me is stopping Walmarts global expansion plans.
You drinking whisky or wine?
Your anti Walmart passion is amazing and it seems to occupy a lot of your time, judging from this thread, you could just adopt a conservative view and let people shop where they want rather than supporting this shut out of Walmart superstores from the largest markets, like mine.
again, put down the booze. If you want a walmart move to where they have one or petition walmart to open one near you.
Perhaps you can point to the section in the Constitution or Bill of Rights that promises every person a neighborhood walmart?
hmmm, perhaps you can?
yeah I know it sucks that you live in Kalifornia. Life is full of choices.
Ignoring the point is not an argument.
Walmart is denied the right to build their grocery stores or super centers in entire cites for political reasons, which you evidently share along with the liberals.
You keep trying to shift to words like neighborhood and communities, Los Angeles, New York city and San Diego, are not neighborhoods, they are massive and diverse cities that politically block Walmart from competing in the grocery field.
What is your liberal argument for keeping Walmart groceries out of the largest cities in America, how do you people think, is it just about the unions, the support of conservative causes, is it dislike for what you described as their “conservative” customers?
“which you evidently share along with the liberals.”
And evidently you are still drunk
“You keep trying to shift to words like neighborhood and communities, “
Still drunk
“What is your liberal argument for keeping Walmart groceries out of the largest cities in America”
I never made one but you’re still drunk.
"petition walmart to open one near you."? You don't even seem to know what we are arguing about.
“”petition walmart to open one near you.”? You don’t even seem to know what we are arguing about.”
I’m not arguing, I’m trying to encourage you to return to sobriety.
If you aren’t happy with your city making it difficult for walmart then run for mayor. OR you could sit there flap your gums and have another drink.
I know that’s what you concluded, but your discussion preceding that did not support that conclusion. The case you made was that the big box stores were running out of places to build new stores and in fact may already be saturated and so their growth rate would decline. I generally agree with that part. The part that I don’t agree with is your conclusion that as a result of that ma and pa stores are going to make a big comeback.
When it comes to retail, the one that can deliver the best good at the lowest price will win. There will always be niche markets where service and highest quality will succeed, but they will always be small markets.
