I have that feeling as well, I find it very difficult to believe that a family owned motel that relies on the summer tourism season in New Jersey can survive a year with zero revenue, especially after spending lots of money on renovations as the article indicates. If the owners can actually survive a year, they are also screwing over their employees who rely on those summer wages to pay their bills, they cost me know come in and what they would do about that, strange. Even if they do survive till 2021 they really dont deserve Business for being cowardly.
Something else to consider is that a lot of these Jersey Shore businesses rely on foreign kids to staff their operations during the summer months. They may have a big problem getting those visas approved this summer.
