The third reason: raging capitalism
I missed small, locally owned stores. I missed walking into a shop and having a personal conversation. You get this when a store stands alone. The owner and employees are committed to the neighborhood, they chat you up.
I didn't want to shop for groceries in a store the size of a stadium. I didn't want to buy a lightbulb in a place with an enormous inventory and its own lumber yard.

I absolutely hate Wal-Mart. I hate the crowds and it seams to attract the stupidest people. I don’t like to admit it, but when I go there, I love seeing all the cheap stuff.
On the positive side, it we have economic ties to China; we’re less likely to go to war with them, unless of course, they have something we want such as oil.
