Lot's of questions that lead up to why no Walmart in NYC?

Ben Stein; unless he lives under a rock should know the answer to that one. They don't want it plain and simple. Even i can answer that one.

He says "To keep Wal-Mart out of New York — or my home, Los Angeles — is simply to inflict a snobby class prejudice on working people. Why they and their representatives put up with this classist, “let them eat Whole Foods” nonsense is yet another mystery, and one that could be solved if politicians really cared about consumers.

In fact the consumers have spoken. Call them what you will but not every neighborhood consumer needs or wants a Walmart. They indeed would rather have a Whole Foods and i would bet my money he shops at Whole foods with the rest of the snobby class.
