I bought a winter coat, on sale natch, because I needed one and wasn’t sure they’d be available in a timely manner next fall when I was ready to buy one.

The thought of trying something on that someone else tried on sounds really unsanitary right now. And I’m not a germaphobe normally.

Time to bring the jobs to IS. We may have fewer choices/more expensive, but, we’ve definitely learned these few months that some of us ( speaking for myself ) have too much stuff

Absolutely not my problem, not our problem. Our only problem is Indians coming to America. We don’t need you here for our jobs. These are for Americans. And I’d rather buy American made clothes anyway. To be perfectly honest, Every Indian could die, and I could care less and I will not shed a tear.

I remember when we used to make clothes in the US.

don’t worry Vijay
We make so much everything, give all kinds of free stuff to the world and still consume as much as we produce.

We will send you a bunch of free food and stuff.

Don’t worry about the bill either. We would have thrown it away anyway.

You are welcome

The employers and employees need to find other work.

There is a woman in India build a whole new industry. She could take on business partners to expand.

She has invented (engineers have worked with her) a process that takes plastics that could be sent to be recycled, but often just tossed out and from them she creates a fuel - currently good enough for heating oil standards and some vehicles (tractors are named). The process essentially “cooks” the plastic, under pressure, captures gases (like methane) and uses them as fuel for the process, and produces fuel from the condensate given off in the process.

She pays individuals and collectors for the plastic, which is usually obtained from folks who usually would have just tossed it out. She’s saving landfill space and cleaning up the surrounding towns. She’s making a small profit, selling the fuel. But, without expansion she alone will not make a big dent in the mountains of plastic tossed into the environment.

When your business is dying, its time to put the work into a different one, or invent a new one.
