17. Are chain bookstores (particularly superstores) evil?
Yes, if you live in an area which had several large, well-stocked
independent bookstores that went out of business when a chain opened a
megastore there.
No, if you live in an area that had no bookstores (or only a mall
bookstore) before the chain opened a megastore there.
Which is a fancy way of saying your mileage may vary, and this topic
is unlikely to be resolved by discussion here.
