Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper written as an editorial arguing in favor of granting Wal-Mart the variance it needs to build a store in a small town. The author of the editorial complains that life has changed over the past generation but that most small-town shop owners have not. They are open only when working people are working, and they carry items owners prefer rather than those most useful to their customers. It gives an example of a successful New Jersey pet store located between a Wal-Mart and a PetSmart. The pet store’s success arises from the fun atmosphere of the store and the fact that it meets customers’ needs. Pressure from Wal-Mart can provide the immediate need for positive change.

pm? Quite a few even close at 3 and 4 pm on Saturdays, are closed on Sundays. They are among the first to complain about business being bad,
yet except for a few hours on Saturday they refuse to keep their stores open at times that most working people - the ones with regular paychecks and money to
spend - are on the job. These stores with limited hours open after working people get to work and close before they get off for the day. What
are working people supposed to do? Well, well shop at Wal-Mart. For now, we run out at lunch time or try to
fit yet one more thing into an already too-full Saturday. Thats the only day we have to clean the house, mow the yard and get the laundry done around
