Of course with these smaller “general stores” come higher prices and less choice and many things that you want won’t be there. More truck traffic to the store to keep it stocked. People are also going to want these stores in their neighborhoods. In many cases, retail development is fought against being placed in neighborhoods. Saving this much oil means that these people have to shop there and no place else. Let’s take away their cars too.
