first off we are not a democracy, but a republic and democracy exist in the form of capitalism meaning if enough people in your town cared about the marshlands then they would not have ot buy at walmart meaning it would move location once the cost of maintaince became higher than profit.

2nd who cares about a marshland. not me and obviousley not your town cause they shop at the stores.

thank you for the great video. Wal mart is coming into too many small towns, with thier lower prices than small private businesses and the private businesses are all getting shut down because everyone goes to walmart for everything

Looks like most of the residents like WalMart. The parking lot looked pretty full in the shot of the jester trying to snowball the WalMart sign. When the Meerkats grow up and get jobs to support themselves, they will enjoy the low prices, always.
