[Vision2020] He's Baaaaaaack . . .

Keely,
 
I think a lot of people like Wal-Mart because it provides jobs to people that have a hard time getting jobs elsewhere. It provides disposable goods at a price more affordable to people with lower incomes. And they like the idea of free enterprise.
 
I understand many of people's objections to Wal-Mart. I just don't understand why the people that object to Wal-Mart cannot understand they do good too, and are not lot a whole different than other super chain stores in the country. They are just bigger and cheaper, most the time.
 
Best Regards,
 
Donovan

Isn't the main question here something along the lines of "why in God's name would a church organization's leadership be so intensely drawn to a Super WalMart store on the Palouse?"  

Or, conversely, "Why in God's name would a church organization's leadership, in their desire to welcome a Super WalMart, be so aggressively snotty toward those who disagree?"
