That’s not the unfalsifiable argument. We’d already addressed Amazon and Wal-Mart. 2 of the 500+ billion dollar corporations that contribute to “inequality” as a nebulous problem.

Outside of that, you said:

> And dozens of stories like this play out nationwide every year, without much coverage

You’re arguing that there are “dozens of other stories like this” but that it’s apparently so commonplace, there’s no reporting on it. This is literally unfalsifiable, and more or less hogwash.

Walmart alone opens dozens of new stores every year. Each one is a local story that doesn't get much coverage outside that locality. There are multiple chain stores just in the US. Boom, I just proved the "dozens of stories" part of my claim. :-P

Chain stores aren't the only kinds of businesses that lobby for tax breaks and subsidies. Sports teams are another example. And these are just the industries that get coverage.
