Walmarts closed out the local Mom & Pop stores. With no other decent jobs in the area most have to rely on places like Walmart for some sort of income.

I suspect if looked at the racial breakdown of Walmart employees that we'd find way more white people working at those stores.

THEY are the dumbasses who voted in governors who will keep them from getting the health insurance they need.
