My relatives come from a town of <10k people who got a Walmart around the time everyone was figuring out Walmart's tactics. They tore up the side of the road from the highway to grandma's house to install bigger storm drains, and as we know now the town usually never recoups those costs.

My aunt went to be a manager at the Walmart while everything else in town slowly went out of business. They carried sewing supplies until Franklin's went under and then they got rid of that section.

It's the same story with louder music.
