4. The Only "Good" Wal-Mart
Is a dead Wal-Mart.

They opened up a store in my Aunt's small town about 18 years ago and did fairly well there. Well, they drove about two-thirds of the local businesses out of business, gave nothing back to the community and relocated thirty miles away to a more profitable location 7 years later.

The town still hasn't recovered and probably never will.
