Put me in the "outraged" category.  Another big box store full of cheap stuff produced by wage-slave labor for working class people with little or no consciousness about how their purchases affect their health or the environment. In a recent ad in the print version of SFR, Omega Mart instructed readers to "Take the Pledge" to become an obidient and loyal consumer before they even opened.

One does not have to spend "their entire pay check" (notice yet another reference to the working class) in order to get quality products. Alexa is correct in describing it as a conquest, as we are continuously colonized by big box stores who do not pay Gross Receipt taxes, killing local business.  I suggest we all bycott this place. I know I will. Santa Fe simply doesn't need anymore of these stores. It would be more appropriate to call it "MegaMart."

One day, after all big box chains have been consolidated, there will likely be just one "mart" chain that has destroyed all competition, providing for all consumer needs. Is this what we want?
