That's true. I just happen to hate Wal Mart. And economically it is a bit different. Mom and Pop shops don't have anywhere near Wal Mart's multi-national purchasing power. Plus independently owned shops tend to give their employees a decent wage and, if they're capable, benefits. Wal Mart offers no such benefits and pays their employees as little as they possibly can. All of that adds up to more money for Wal Mart and those who own and operate it (whom I can only assume are demons sent from hell). They're not going to feel the bite of a $7 shoplifter vs. a Mom and Pop store.
