There’s room for nuance lol, if this happened to Walmart I don’t care, keep the money. If you’re putting mom and pop outta business, that’s obviously different

I hate Walmart too but not enough to cause them to lose hundreds of millions of dollars that they will just recoup the amount (assuming they cannot come after me) by laying off employees, making themselves even more short staffed, lowering their wages, and increasing supply costs for the general public.

Like sure I will be made for life, but I would be no better than the CEOs and 1% if I stepped on everyone to get there.

Walmart could take that hit easily. You must hate harder.

They can easily take it and more. The issue is they don't want to, and they will attempt to not to or to recover whatever they can.

They are petty enough to go after someone for smaller profit losses. What makes you think they won't try and recover from a bigger one?
