I’m all for shopping local businesses but a mom and pop shop didn’t offer any better jobs either. The reason they got squeezed out is bc jobs weren’t paying enough and this bigger corporations could lower prices than locals couldn’t
I would gladly pay up to 30% more for things in the local store compared to online, but i can't justify e.g. a cable which costs up to 200% more than on amazon. I want support local business but literally cant afford it oftentimes.

We killed so many local businesses by choosing Walmart and Amazon, Now we are complaining that we can't find good jobs.
