I don’t trust their data either. They don’t list any sources. Who knows where they get their data from or it it’s completely randomized.

Everyone loses here though. Walmart will only lose money because people can’t spend their SNAP money there and it’s not like they’ll be spending it at more ethical stores.

Nothing personal

Sure sounds like it’s personal. But if all of us are to blame then please enlighten us, let’s hear about how you would have prevented Trump from coming to power a second time if you were American.

Not sure if you’re being serious, but yeah we have guards pretty much everywhere in the US, particularly in cities. We also have guards at grocery stores (usually multiple guards, and they’re usually cops in uniform hired by the store) and at discount stores and sometimes on buses and trains. I’ve even seen them at convenience stores and cell phone shops. My apartment building has an armed guard on site with their own police-clone patrol SUV from like 10pm to 6am every night, I’ve had to call them a couple times and they arrive faster than the cops.

The US is a violent shithole and the guards primarily keep away sketchy troublemakers (except in larger stores where they’re useless and only used to deter shoplifting).

I worked at one of these places in the US, they absolutely do exist. It was a free “market” stocked daily with produce, meat and a huge assortment of food products and our “shoppers” pushed carts around our market and picked whatever they wanted off the shelves.

I agree with your main point though, shit is fucked and things aren’t getting better and our political system is broken beyond repair.

Done! Wouldn’t have bothered voting if I hadn’t read your comment, so thanks for sharing. Voting was really easy, just had to enter my member number and zip code.

I’ve never understood the appeal of Target. There’s a huge Target 60 seconds down the street from me and I never shop there except to get one or two items. It’s expensive, has a ridiculously small grocery section while clothing takes up half the store, and they’re so worried about shoplifters that they have multiple security staff standing at the door giving everyone leaving the stink eye.

Haha yeah that’s a tough one! I’m in Colorado where Colorado potatoes are almost as ubiquitous as Idaho potatoes, so honestly lucked out there.

As an American mine is Europe/Canada > the rest of the developed world OR blue states > Mexico > other countries > red states. It’s surprisingly easy to avoid food from red states. For tech/online services I prefer European over everywhere else.
