Yeah the people who are responding to this saying “who cares, it’s just corporations being harmed” are thinking too small picture. The corporations aren’t going even harmed that much by this, not on a global scale, they’ll just shut down the most affected stores. Then who suffers? All the residents of those communities.
Look, I don’t like big mega corps like Target and Walmart, but the fact is that they can afford to sell goods to people at way lower prices than small retailers. Don’t misunderstand me, I know that’s because they’ve put a stranglehold around suppliers and built giant monopolies, but the effect is the same. The world would be a much better place if giant retail monopolies all disappeared, but it would have terrible consequences for them to only dissappear from the poorest and most crime laden communities
