MODERATORS
Local business tyrants rest on their laurels bereft of competition -> neolibs get elected and repeal this -> walmart and amazon effortlessly undercut their asses
As a bonus, people who can will just drive a town over or whatever to go to Wally Mart
Walmart is 1.5 hours away from this city
Fuck that's a gap in coverage..
It's sort of the crux of the issue, dollar stores have been expanding to fill that gap in these remote and small communities, and those communities don't want that for themselves.
