Wal-Mart’s new store on Thompson Bridge might have friendly words “Neighborhood Market” on its sign, but “Neighborhood Racket” would be a better name. A racket is an organized immoral activity for extortion; a dishonest scheme, trick, business or activity. Wal-Mart’s insistence to get its own stoplight against the wishes of everyone in the neighborhood, and supposedly our city government, is very ugly.
