I think some of the shrinkage is stuff being hard to find. I think most of the shrinkage is the corporation sending the store stuff it does not want. There is no obvious relation between what sells at a Walmart and what they get sent.
I do not think a manager is allowed to to tell corporate that they sent him unsellable merchandise because the creed is a good manager can sell anything.
Edit My common sense tells me that corporate sends stuff that never arrived.
Or the warehouses that purposely send expired product just so the store has to deal with it instead.

These aren't mutually exclusive. Walmart enters a market, wipes out all of its competitors by offering prices they don't have the logistical capabilities to compete with all while the money spent there disproportionately leaves the area. This is why people don't want Walmart in the area. That's valid.
But once Walmart is in the area and has done its thing, it's now like the only retail/grocery in the area, since they wiped out their competition. So if they leave, there is just no retail or grocery left. That is a valid reason for a community protesting Walmart leaving an area.
Yes online shopping exist, but it has a lot of its own price and time issues.
What a load of shit. There are two Walmarts here and there are plenty of other stores around.
