On the other hand, they just love Costco. Unionized, "healthcare for all," etc. I went to a shopping mall in Phoenix to pick up supplies for work. There is a Super Walmart on one side and a Costco on the other. Naturally we began talking and comparing the two. From where we entered the store on the south side, an observation was made that Costco was on the left and Walmart was on the right. We continued with other east-west cold war analogies. Walmart is bright and cheery while Costco is gray concrete dreary. Walmart has a large selection of goods in different sizes while Costco attempts to keep costs down by offering only a few brands in eerily industrial sizes. Etc, etc.
