I think most Walmarts don’t really sell groceries. Last time I lived near one, it didn’t have any produce, which is really the whole point of a grocery store.
Didn’t Kroger just buy another chain, though? That might have been what made them the biggest.
Its getting harder and harder to find a regular walmart anymore here in Texas. They seem to be all Supercenters or Neighborhood Markets (only groceries)
Not yet. They are trying to merge with Albertsons which owns lots of local stores like Jewel Osco and Safeway. But they need the merger to be approved by the FDA before it can go through. Their case is supposed to be heard early next year. Let’s hope it doesn’t go through.
The div1 walmarts without a grocery are mostly phased out I thought? There are only supercenters (general store + grocery) and neighborhood markets (grocery only) in the adjacent states to me.
Walmart has store classifications which govern how they are built according to the demographics of the area they serve, ie: population, average income, etc.

Yes. Humans choose to allow other humans to suffer, over and over again. In fact, some of them make money from it, and then spend that money spreading the idea that it’s good for people to suffer because they’re not ‘normal’ (white, male, heterosexual).
I think you’re right but, also, we a tend to discount the effect of having the most greedy and sociopathic people in our society leading it and owning most of the assets.
Not that you’ve said either way but I think that then gets confused with “human nature.”

That’s wayyyy too early to say. Her only really different policy position is on Medicare For All and fracking, everything else is a matter of degrees. Even then Biden doesn’t particularly oppose Medicare For All, he just said it needs to be tax supported and not based on debt spending.
Whether she’ll be better in practice is really more a function of Congressional support. If the Dems can’t take Congress and the pack the Court nothing else will matter anyways.
Unless she wants to take a firmer position vis a vis Officially Acting to Publicly Execute certain Justices. I don’t believe she’s stated an intent on that.
We can never expect anything groundbreaking out if the Democratic party. The best thing is just solidifying some already predatory practice that may be slightly better than the previous predatory practice. Your best bet is to support any sort of voting reform that you come across such as Ranked Choice Voting. With that, we can hope to rid ourselves of the two-party hegemony.
Absolutely. Add capping campaign spending, overturning Citizens United, and making it easier for alternative political parties to get on the ballot to that list, too.
I mean that’s established political wisdom: establish yourself as a progressive in the primaries and then move towards the centre for the general. That has been the democratic playbook for many elections. And it kinda makes sense: You need the base for the primary but those voters alone are not enough for the general.
Biden was actually an outlier in that regard. He actually moved left in his campaign rhetoric after Bernie dropped out.
