    Oh please, this topic again? We are much better off economically with mom & pop stores than Wal-Mart. Yes, you have to pay more at mom & pops because of economies of scale, but it's pretty much proven economic fact that when you centralize businesses and services, less of society's wealth is passed around and more is hoarded
    by those at the top. On average, Wal-Mart, kills 3 local jobs for every 2 jobs it creates.

    Of course, you love Wal-Mart because the prices are cheap, and considering that most people's real wages [[adjusted for inflation) haven't increased in decades [[including yours, most likely), that's a strong incentive. But don't let it cloud your judgment.
