Shelley Stevens: My brother's friend's dad (yes long connection) owns a card company, it's small, but Hallmark payed Walmart to not let his small card company in their stock. So, I'd say yes.

Lita Thammorongsa: They've destroyed K-Mart.

Rodrigo Pezley: I know ALOT of people who boycott Walmart, and there's no way that Walmart sells ever! y product out there. I don't think Walmart has destroyed small business, at least not in large cities. I can't speak for small towns, because I'm sure there's some problems there.Craigslist is consumer-based, and I doubt that there is so much business going on there that it would drive a small business out of business completely, unless the prices were very high....Show more
