This article makes some good points, but it does not present a fair portrayal of the opposing position. It reads like it was written by a libertarian, and it makes generous use of sophistry. It would be a much better article if the author actually dealt with (and refuted) the best objections to his position, instead of ridiculous speculation that the reason a number of communities oppose Wal-Marts is that, for example, Wal-Mart sells Bibles.

. . . instead of ridiculous speculation that the reason a number of communities oppose Wal-Marts is that, for example, Wal-Mart sells Bibles. . . .Actually, the article doesn't suggest that's why communities may oppose Wal-Marts, but why some Lefties might.
