Funny how that’s the same excuse used by stores in my area that were trying to unionize. Weird that these two things always seem to align. It’s almost like monopolies are bad
You’re skipping a few steps there lad, 1. There’s more than 1 store, they might not carry everything so you’ll have to go to another store, but that is the reality of mom and pop shops. 2. How is it that a lot of those stores died out in the first place? Because you purchased everything at the large cooperation, and when the mom and pop shops closed you blamed the large storechain WHOM YOU GAVE YOUR MONEY TO. It’s like none of you understand that every action has a consequence and there is no one to blame but yourself. It’s a business, ofcourse they want profit, and you let them to the detriment of the shops you pretend to care so much about. You made your choice, stop fucking complaining.
I don’t think you understand what a food desert is. Or what being poor is like. Especially when you seem to be suggesting that it’s poor people’s fault for being poor.
Americans going to the government owned post office that isn’t profitable: Wow, I sure am glad that there is a way for me to send and receive mail, it’s a service everyone needs.
Americans considering the government opening a grocery store that might not be profitable: This is totally unsustainable and there is too much stealing for this to exist. People do not deserve access to a conveniently located grocery store.
A lot of people do critize USPS, several years ago Republicans tried to privatize it but there was heavy push back. It’s not exactly hypocritical here.
Implying that a government opening a grocery store in an area because companies closed thiers being some sort of extremist commie take when the government already does this with things like libraries and postal offices and nobody bats an eye.
I always try to forgo people’s political stance and just debate them on issues as humans. Sucks that these particular humans ignore everything that doesn’t fit their agenda and they all have no fucking responsibility and claim innocence and blame everyone else. It’s pathetic.
It sounds like you do have a prejudice against those store chains. Those stores were closed because there was an insanely stupid amount of theft.

Vote qith your wallet
How? If you have only 1 grocery store and you need to survive, then you must buy from that store.

Lot of assumptions.
That’s ironic.
Oh my fucking god dude.
FOOD DESERT
By definition there is little to no choice for these people.
They do, but Walmart has about a billion more votes.
No they don’t. They have what you give them.
What wallet? I’m broke
Makes it pretty easy then, doesn’t it.
“Voting with your wallet” means fuck all when some people’s wallets are hundreds of thousands times bigger
Always pointing at others
Source?
Their official statements etc. The one in Chicago hadn’t been turning a profit for 18 years due to theft.
Now show me the investor reports where they say the same thing, if you can find them
Go look for em yourself lol. You don’t mean shit to me I’m not doing anything for you
Look at my link dump elsewhere here where people did in fact check. Tldr they’re lying
So you think they went “hey it’s only been 10 years, this theft problem is going to clear up any time…” ?? Change your username, you’re disgracing it.
“Theft”

You are screaming at a brick wall. Assume everyone you talk to here is a tankie or at least a commie.

The topic at hand is socialism. You should understand the difference.
That was clearly in reference to this community, not the policy.

If you actually debated people as humans maybe you’d have some empathy for the common people affected by this issue rather than bootlicking
Not selling something is usually less profitable than selling something, it’s not bootlicking to say there may be a reason so many stores closed.
