Bloomington, IN vs. Columbia, MO vs. Fayetteville, AR?
Which is your favorite of these 3, which do you think is the prettiest town and which has the most going on (activities, culture, restaurants, etc)?

I've been to Bloomington, but not the other two. Have you seen the other two mentioned? How does it compare to Bloomington, which we love. Thanks.

Fayetteville, AR is actually more progressive and growing much faster than Bloomington ever will.

I have a graduate degree and use Walmart more than anywhere else, and I am not white trash. It is also headquartered in Bentonville, not Fayetteville and I do not know any Walmart businesses based in the town (besides their stores).
By the way, according to 60 Minutes and Vanity Fare, Walmart best symbolizes America today:
TBJ poll: Walmart best symbolizes America - Triangle Business Journal:
So let's hope that America is not doomed.
It takes a very sad individual to disparage a whole community rather than enlightening us with the positives of the towns that they prefer, but this is probably a reflection of that person's character, which I will leave other posters to judge. |
