Bah, WalMart. Your premise that "it harms all of us except the king-makers" is fundamentally garbage. WalMart benefits hundreds of millions of ordinary everyday people to the tune of billions of dollars, and every dollar that someone saves by having their groceries shipped with a more efficient supply chain is a dollar they can spend on things which are meaningful to their lives. WalMart's positive impact on the US economy is bigger than the last recession.

Would you approve of a 10% tax on groceries for the poor? Because that's essentially what you're calling for when you call out WalMart.

I suppose it's easy to bitch about the "king-makers" when your own little barony is disrupted.
