So if Walmart killed them all, but they're too far away from a lot of people, then presumably at least those people would've kept the general stores in business, no?

People just drive 15-30 minutes.

Those without reliable transport have few options. Its not uncommon to go grocery shopping once a month here in West Virginia.

Good luck keeping fruits and veggies around that long.
