Defending Wal-Mart

In today's St. Louis Post-Dispatch, David Nicklaus defends Wal-Mart. Good to see someone with a proper capitalist attitude writing on the business page.

Sample:
    Wal-Mart may be a danger to competitors or even to retail clerks' unions. But it's hard to imagine the retailer damaging an entire state.

    Yet that's the claim of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which last week listed Vermont among the nation's 11 most endangered historic places. The threat, the National Trust's news release said, is "an invasion of behemoth stores that could destroy much of what makes Vermont Vermont."

    Preservationists should stick to saving historic buildings and neighborhoods from the bulldozer and wrecking ball. When they try to keep one company out of an entire state, they're really fomenting class warfare.
Not class warfare. They're trying to foment a Marxist revolution.
