http://www.westvalleyview.com/WESTVALLEYVIEW/myarticles.asp?P=715420&S=365&PubID=11915My understanding is that Glendale, AZ, has already refused to grant Wal-Wart permission to build a supercenter that would replace another one, leaving the first one as a huge gaping empty shell.
Now the people of Goodyear, AZ, are initiating a referendum to keep Wal-wart from building a new supercenter just three miles from an existing one. The Goodyear P&Z commission was against it, but the city council claimed they needed the sales tax dollars -- like, duh, you morans, you think people won't shop in smaller, locally-owned stores and generate the same tax dollars? oh, you'd rather they buy lots of cheap plastic made-in-china-by-slave-labor crap?
I hate, loathe, and despise Wal-Wart and I can't believe my dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks-and-lazier-than-dirt sister still shops there after what they did to my dad.
