Definitely.
The photos of the concourses in that mall weren't empty like I saw in my own mall yesterday.
Sears was totally empty mid-afternoon except for the annex which has garden things and guys-stuff like tools and lawn mowers.
I didn't see ONE SINGLE clerk in sight in any direction, either, not even in the two cashier cubicles in my viewing range.
I got the willies....it was like being in a morgue at midnight.
I remarked on this to a clerk who appeared after about 5 minutes of my searching. I kid you not - she looked like she was going to cry She knows very well what's happening.
Thanks, Obama.
