Chicago is discriminating against some businesses, and for the most part forcing them out of Chicago. the "big-box" retailers that stay within Chicago will shrink, either to get under the limit, or just to decrease costs. They might spin off parts of their businesses to a separate company who will pay rent and/or fees but who won't be part of Walmart (or K-Mart, Target etc.).

People in Chicago will have to either drive further or pay more for the goods they buy, but otherwise the effect will be minimal.
