Well, it is part of the integration of rural areas in to metropolitan areas,usually, and usually is very near the development of exurb commuter communities, and the introduction of a full array of stores. I have seen it in the rural parts of Northern Virginia. Wal-Mart may drive mom and pop out of business, but I have never seen it retain a monopolistic advantage, and therefore believe the charge of dumping to be bogus......
