Rather than moaning at the market machinations draining dollars directly 
from poorer personal pockets, might we not work to empower ourselves to 
return some of those dollars back into the community by way of a 
local-option corporate income tax?  For-profit entities that want to 
organize themselves to voraciously vacuum value from personal pockets 
and purses ought to have more opportunities to participate in public 
priorities via their increased income increments being carefully 
collected into coffers.  Perilous pavement potholes don't fill 
themselves -- they need assistance.
