As we look forward to next year, hopefully with a new president and an improving economy, I think we should all bear in mind some of the factors that helped to diminish our present economy, big box stores included.
An excellent series of articles from the L.A. Times -- please read what you can, and pass the word: don't patronize Wal-Mart.

Even if you don't have time to read any of the articles, check out the flash US map (right hand side) "Unrivaled Expansion."

I had to visit this link. Great googly moogly, I was entertained for hours... Having worked retail for many a year through school (no, not at WalMart, thank god) I could relate (and in some cases, thankfully, couldn't relate) to a lot of what was said here.
Thanks for pointing it out...
