It is the Walmarting of America, not Walmarts fault they as so successful, we want (as noted) cheaper faster. They have management that know's how to wrangle a deal, drive a supplier out of business and move it overseas.
Remember the Walmart Buy America Campaign? That just disappeared.
Recently a local family restaurant that had been in business for years went under, located in town. The newer members of the community preferred the newer chains at the strip malls Ruby's, Fridays, Bob Evans.
There was a time when I traveled and ate local flavor now the local flavor is as mentioned Ruby's ECT. from Seattle to Miami and all points in between. Heck same thing when you travel to Europe and China.
