Walmart San Diego Update

As I posted earlier, the San Diego City Council voted to require extra hurdles before Super Walmarts that sell groceries can set up shop in San Diego. The hurdles all but guarantee that lower priced groceries won't be coming to a neighborhood near you if you live in the city limits of "Enron by the Bay."

Richard Rider likes Walmart's chances and is predicting a smack down for the City Council. He says it's a foregone conclusion that Walmart will gather the necessary signatures to put a repeal measure on the ballot. He is also predicting that at least one Democrat will flip and the measure will be repealed. If you haven't done so yet, get out to Walmart and sign the petition. I love nothing more than seeing this City Council get slapped down when they run roughshod over the desires of the people.
