"Corporations such as Wal-Mart kill small business."

Similarly, horseless carriages and Henry Ford killed the buggy whip industry.

Sam Walton's family has given more money to the GOP than any other bunch in recent years, and it has gotten them a lot of crap from Dem politicians and their lackeys. If they closed Perimeter Mall's 110 stores, tore it down, and replaced it with a single Wal-Mart store, the neighborhood Dem activists, the Dem politicians, and the unions would oppose it "because it would add too much traffic, harm children, and polute the streams."

Wal-Mart probably helps small businesses, since it employs a lot of people and pays a lot of wages. Small business which offer something these people want, and offer good service, likely prosper.
