[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walmart is not a plus in an already vibrant low price shopping corridor. Maybe high SES people will feel more comfortable shopping at Walmart, however, there are a number of "dollar' type stores in the area already selling low cost goods or cheap junk-your choice. Walmart got city concessions and did not offer any. Given how much we taxpayers will pay for Walmart, its employees' health care needs with little return, the bill will help protect DC's citizens in many ways. [/quote] Exactly what concessions did Walmart receive? I was under the impression they were not given any tax incentives to come into the cit. Costco is s a different story however. The city paid or the roads and new sewers for Costco, but I don't recall the same legislation o Walmart. [/quote]
