Wal-Mart And The Endangered State
The U.S. state that is considered most endangered historic places in America has to be inventive to survive the impact of Wal-Mart.
"The National Trust for Historic Preservation this year put the whole state of Vermont on its list of most endangered historic places in America, the only state to be so listed...Vermonters locked in this latest tussle with Wal-Mart fear the state will suffer greatly should they lose. Wal-Mart wants to plunk several big box stores down at the edges of rural communities."
