Existing businesses closing and new ones not opening.

For example, Cabellas was to open a new store in Denver.

The locals put up a fuss for years until approvals were finally given.

Now Cabellas is not going to build.

The closest Cabela's to my house is in Lehi, UT. It's well over 200 miles one way. The place has an amazing taxidermy display distributed throughout the store. Pricing and stock availability is average. Certainly not so good as to prompt a 200+ mile drive if shopping was the prime objective.

We had Cabela’s ditch out in Indy also.
And that was after demanding (and receiving) incredible corporate welfare (aka free land and tax abatements) from the state and city (Greenwood).
