The question is, who benefits from Aldi's expansion? We need to ask ourselves, what does affordable shopping mean for our communities? Is it just about lowering prices or is it also about creating jobs and stimulating local economies?
Let's be real, we all know that when big corporations like Aldi come into town, they always seem to find the cheapest locations. I'm not saying they're not doing anyone any harm, but we need to consider the impact on our smaller businesses.
And have you thought about what this means for our city's diversity? We can't just focus on attracting new customers; we also need to ensure that these new developments bring in a range of cultural experiences and community resources. The South Loop is already becoming quite gentrified, so I'm not sure if Aldi's arrival is exactly what the community needs right now
