DESCRIPTION:In the U.S., Wal-Mart opens a new mega-store every two business days.  This 
 is the story of the impact of discount chain stores on American towns and 
 cities, and on our society as a whole.  "Store Wars" follows events in 
 Ashland, VA, over a one-year period, from the first stormy public hearing 
 that galvanizes residents’ opposition through the Town Council’s final 
 vote on a proposed Wal-Mart store.  Arguments for the store (tax revenues, 
 low prices, jobs) and against it (destroys small town character, traffic, 
 low-end jobs) are articulated and hotly debated.     The film will be 
 followed by an open discussion.  Suggested donation $5 - $10.  Sponsored by 
 World Centric, Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, and Peace Umbrella of 
 the Unitarian Universalist Church of Palo Alto.\n
