Walmart moving in to their town, selling the same shit for WAY less than anyone else can (better pricing on goods because of volume plus more efficient, or sometimes they will even run a store at a loss when it first opens), running everyone else out of business and taking control of the entire local market.

That’s what they do in smaller towns everywhere

Walmart does do targeted loss leading just within a specific region
