Big Box Ban - Thoughts?
#11
I usually leave these type topics to yous guys cuz, well, I don't live there.

But since they just broke ground for a HEB and a Home Depot in my little town, I'm gonna throw my 2 cents in.

It's sad to see the small shops shutting down. I know I know it's a necessary evil but honestly that small town feeling is one of the things that I liked about it here and there as well.

Ironicly, the real estate market is still going strong here due to that type of growth.

The flip-side is my wife wont have to drive 25 miles to get groceries and my kid loves Mcdonalds (they're going in across the street from Home Depot)

While I'm whining, I hate the fact that most of the stuff that walmart sells is from China. That's another thread in and of itself. Needless to say the recent media on Chineese products is just the tip of the iceberg on that matter.

I've warned for years, that we should be careful what we buy from china. Unfortunately the recent events have proved that to be a justified position.

I guess paying a little bit more for a product that was made in a Country that regulates and enforces qaulity control might not be such a bad idea after all.

Blessings,
dave
