Let's get personal/local

Some local muckraking: I remember years ago Food Policy Commission meetings Mr. Shapiro of Giant Eagle complaining about the WalMart types eating up "little guys" like Giant Eagle...not seeing Giant Eagle's role in ridding neighborhoods of the mom and pop stores...Now Mr. Shapiro's sons turn out to be real anti-union...I'd say "bastards" but being a good hippie I believe everyone's good inside and I try to love and see the beauty of everybody. There used to be stores owned and run often by couples out of their homes on almost every other block. Now that's decentralization, that's local production, and that's resilience.
