    That’s the point though. The profits don’t go to locals, they stay within the owner’s for their second cottage and new boat. Very rarely do local stores actually benefit anybody other than themselves.

      They’re infinitely more likely to indirectly get back to the locals than if they were to go directly to a corporation on the other side of the country.
