First there were catalog sales, then there were big city department stores, then there were suburban malls, now there is a combination of big box stores and online sales.

That's partly true, but I live near Framingham, MA, the mall capital of Massachusetts, and the malls and shopping strips cratered IMMEDIATELY after The Communist's election. The upscale mall, "The Natick Collection," changed its name to "The Natick Mall," at about the same time.

Business has yet to come back, despite the fact that the recession ended five years ago < snort>.
