Well I can't, personally, shop at Walmart less (then zero), but I hope others will consider it now.

It was already past due to support Walmart's competitors, anyway, if we want any choices in our communities. Bullshit like this just confirms it.

Yeah I haven't given Walmart a penny in the last decade or so but I also realize I'm incredibly privileged to be able to shop at the more expensive local stores.

Walmart is also directly responsible for the cost of sea freight though so they're still affecting your life whether you want them to or not.
