Even a significant portion of the idiot Obama voters have to be affected to a degree.

One wonders, though, whether many of them have the insight to know what's causing their troubles. My bet is that almost none of them do; their stupid voting over the years in a such indicator of that.

“in a such indicator of that.”

That should be “is a sure indicator of that.”

Mainly because this is not the first time that stores are closing. Stores have been shutting down since the beginning of time. It does not matter what year or who is President, they close. I remember Wanamaker’s, Woolworth’s, GeeBee’s, Montgomery Wards, Sam Goodies, and so many others. It is sad to see favorites close but even with a President Cruz, stores will close and businesses will fail.

As to both remarks, if you aren’t working or on the dole or ‘work’ for the Government this kind of ‘it doesn’t make any difference to me, I am not bothered by it’ mentality sets in.

On a snow day the other day (IT ACTUALLY SNOWED)’they’ were interviewing people who were upset that they had a day off and the INCONSIDERATE stores and some malls weren’t open.

For all the ‘good’ it would do, maybe someone should tell the ‘dissenters’

“YOU don’t have the day off to go shopping, you have the day off so the streets can get plowed AND since the schools close if snow is forecast, you will be able to be home with your kids.”

Just a thought, but with even the Govt now shutting down for a dusting OR a ‘severe forecast’, after say 4 or 5 snow days this year, it should have been declared that maybe ‘Presidents Day’ wasn’t a holiday, to make up for the lost time.
Talk about screaming...

Notice as the Govt kept ‘adding’ PAID Holidays, private business started ignoring them, maybe ‘trading’ the day after Thanksgiving or if Christmas on Tuesday or Thursday giving Mon or Fri off.
Either of those days off are somewhat ‘unproductive anyway- as a lot of people just extend their weekend to accommodate the Holiday.

Since the Govt is broke and layoffs ‘hurt the economy in General’ why not just start with NO paid holidays for a year or so.

Go back to the ‘old theory’ when I went into the ‘work force’ - If you work you get paid.
Thanksgiving was a day off and you just didn’t get paid.
Only real difference was salaried people didn’t get ‘docked’ but then again, salaried people didn’t have 40 hr weeks either - more like 60, but you were allowed to ‘winter in’ BUT ‘they’ expected you to show your face “In case something had to be done”.
