65. People who shop at Wal-Mart. People who don't take public transportation.

Because we are all supposed to be living in big cities where we can shop for cruelty-free super-vegan whatever at other stores.
And live where we got instantly on-time subways and buses.

Sure, I can shop at Costco or Whole Foods, but I'll have to drive 150 miles one way. That's not real practical. And all these other chains that people mention that they shop at for groceries? We don't have them here. They are NOT all over the country.
