There is probably a back room story as to why and how this was accomplished.

Or maybe the real backroom story is why it hasn't happened in more towns.

Oxxos are super convenient materially, but the (negative) social impact on the local community is obvious and it seems to me that any authorities actually looking out for their communities' interests would/should be concerned.

The fact that there isn't more resistance, now that seems su$piciou$.


and why would that be?:?: and who are these "authorities" you speak of?
