While I agree to the downfalls of WalMart, I think it is important to note that there are already stores in the area that are just as bad when it comes to fueling mass consumption and cheaply made plastic things. If WalMart were not here, those stores would continue to supply those that consume that way. If WalMart was here, it might provide a better quality of discounted items than what are already offered at our stores that we currently have. People in Humboldt have limited incomes and they pay high prices at the stores that are here. I think it would be nice for Humboldt residents to be able to save compared to places like the mall, Target, or KMart.
