I'm not entirely sure what your point is. Why shouldn't Wal-Mart close under-performing stores?
That is smart business sense. Why would a business throw money away keeping a non producing store open?
You also notice all these stores are in MI where the democrats have raised taxes so much many businesses are moving out.
I am not a Granholm(Canadian citizen) fan. MI is the only state in the union that has an additional Small Business tax.
