“The really scary thing is that small businesses are failing like popcorn pops.”
Absolutely; there is no shortage of retail space by me. New businesses tend to be catering to the illegals here (laundromats, check cashing places, ethnic restaurants - ones where only they would ever eat). Besides that we have tattoo parlors...
Yes, as I look down the once prosperous business strip of the Mississippi Coast... all that I see are dollar stores, laundry centers, fast food and thrift stores... and Casinos... and 70% unoccupied but once thriving spaces... buildings... empty and for sale or rent. I call it “obamaville”. They are everywhere that Americans do business... except in DC and the surrounding evildom.
