    Walmart used to, probably still does, use other stores as welfare generators for newer stores. The reason was/is because that means the new store can undercut all local competition long enough to drive them out of business and the jack the prices afterwards. Corporations focused so heavily on lying, cheating, and stealing do not do anything out of the good ess of their hearts.

      Funny thing, Walmart tried to do exactly that when they were trying to get a foothold in germany, but failed massively, lol.
