    I hope the lawsuit is successful. This would make them the only viable store in many areas.

      What if the only viable store would give you better deals than 2 competing ones?

        Why would that ever even happen? What incentive does a business have to stifle its own profit margins?

          If it was owned by the public, then the people could do the best they can with what they have instead of the least people are willing to accept while charging the most they’re willing to pay.

          It’s why all the useful idiots are against nationalization of corporations. It removes private owners who exist just to siphon profits.
