[@FritzSmith-h4g]

@TommyD-fo7ye: "He fails to mention..." so says Walmart. Bullshit! Walmart's PR department issued that statement intentionally to mislead the public. Walmart's business is declining heavily because "online shoppers" can get stuff at the same (or less) prices without going anywhere and do it from the comfort of their home. Walmart's biggest problem is "high overhead", that is big box stores and huge parking lots. These were great before online shopping. But no longer are. They are expensive. Note: Europe doesn't allow any Walmart stores. PS: I'm a 1986 graduate of business school with a GPA of 3.4. And I've been watching Walmart for over 20 years. Walmart will be filing Chapter 11 protection from creditors in less than ten years, and a few years later will file Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

@@FritzSmith-h4g so says someone who doesn't have a clue. Chicago Walmarts were losing $10 mil a year. They bought out a 50's shopping center in my city maybe 15 yrs ago and built their store, and Lowe's built on the property. Both closed within 2-3 yrs. 30 yrs ago a Target was built on the outlot of that center. Not only did it close in 2 yrs they torn the building down. They closed a Supercenter a few years ago, and the shoppers there found this big market to go to, and now they have armed security, and are considering closing early. This is on the County line where Sam's has to relocate to. I wonder how long they'll last. The Walmart that they recently closed looked like a hell hole inside They also closed a small grocery store recently.

The dirty secret is that the very government spending that is consuming society like an ulcer, gets magically counted as part of gdp. For that reason, the public is not having the proper discussion: has marginal productivity of [federal] debt gone negative? Some have not heard that idea before, so the plain english version... a dollar borrowed causes the economy to shrink instead of provide an anemic 0.2% growth or some such as it did before the threshold was crossed. What it looks like in a boots on the ground way is borrowing more cannot even serve existing debt interest due in full, and therefore makes the debt problem ever bigger. And then the music stops. I think the US may have silently crossed the rubicon at the end of 2023 - note the fed threw up its hands and stopped raising rates. The last time they gave up on program was 2005, when M3 disapeared from all efforts. BLS numbers have been garbage for decades - and that discussion likely only begins in earnest when a number of countries just dump bonds en masse. They have a place to run to now for international settlements, and its brics.

This is just simple cause of effects of shit brewing for a long time. -low wages = can't afford to shop -no foot traffic = less profit = job cuts + store closures = more unemployed = less people that can afford to shop This is what happens when you have a economy of only rich & poor. The middle class is the backbone of an economy. We live in a time where ai, robots, performance metrics, skeleton crew workforce, lack of starter homes for low income earners, jobs being sent over seas, & a lack of good paying jobs., When most of the jobs are retail, restaurants, or warehouse work... no one is getting ahead.

​@@shaymalchione809crazy brainwashed fool. The reduction in taxes only helps the worker. Fiat currency causes prices to rise. Look at the Roman Empire and you will see similarities.

I used to do loss prevention for Rite Aid! The company has been a MESS since its inception!! The way their real estate is delegated under several different companies:Rexall,Douglas Drug,Adams corporation,Brooks Pharmacy!! Walgreens found out that they COULD NOT buy most of Rite Aid’s pharmacies because of this Dilemma!!

Who is John Galt?

Only educated, well read, intelligent people know who John Galt is. People like PacmanBrunner don't have a clue.

A large mall north of Seattle closed all the doors. It's strange to see a mall with no cars.

Some companies & corporations cut head count and expect the same labor output but don’t pay that 1 employee enough to do that 3 person job!!!#UnderPaid#OverWorked#BurnedOutEmployees#LowMorale

Bring back mom & pop stores!! Big chain stores can go bankrupt and I will not give a damned!!

We have one Costco store here in Newfoundland. It is taking in MILLIONS of $$$$$ every week. Now, Costco will raise their membershit fees by 7$ per card. Their meat and vegetables are priced to outrageous levels. Poor customer service, no community involvement. Just TAKE TAKE TAKE.

If these weren’t so greedy they would have customers

CVS pharmacies and Walgreens are the only ones i care about so far in this video.

On line shopping is also the cause of many stores having to close. I try to buy in my local stores.

Oh but Brandon says the economy is great! People have money but don't like the prices.... he says corporate greed is to blame, not higher costs like fuel, rent, wages, taxes and everything else it takes to run a business these days. Brandon says: "let them eat cake"

The last time I posted my opinion of Brandon, I got blocked for hate speech.

High Price Stores that are being Robbed Right in front of Mgt.Knowing POLICE Rarely Respond Are Closing Either Very Early or Just Going Out of Business😮 4:24

[@tiffanyisaacson1407]

They'd rather loot then buy, so of course more stores will close !!!

[@loqutisborg5416]

Saw the videos on YT. Bloody ridiculous.

[@maranatha256]

CVS bought Long's here in Hawaii. They are everywhere. They have closed many minute clinics. It will be quite difficult if they go bankrupt here as they are the primary store of their type in the islands.

[@teripeterson5709]

Walmart had ran most Mom & Pop stores to close down. Amazon will/is doing the same to Walmart!

[@barbararich3060]

I am retired. I have to pay back the cost of living raise all Americans got. I have to pay the Medicare bill from January that was paid by my Medicaid. But they took my Medicaid away in June so they are having a field day penalizing me left and right. Please don’t trust social security for your retirement , they rob you and say it’s the law!!😮😢

[@johnadams5489]

I'm surprised that Giant Market is still in business. Their prices are way too high on everything. I only buy what I can't buy at Walmart at Giant. There POS system is more complicated that it has too be. They don't have an express POS. They give you stupid questions asking for a donation. Not going back.

it better to cut out the middle man and brand names. China need sell directly to any country consumers the same stuff, way cheaper. Stop making middlemen RICH.

[@elisabethgardner6321]

I really don't care about all the big box stores, small one will coming back all over the place. No more chains same goes for Restaurants and Fast Food places. I will not miss them.

[@BSGSV]

Rite Aid is the flag bearer of the old Thrifty's Drugs. I only mention this because if they close, that's the end of the cheap and tasty Thrifty's Ice Cream counter inside them.

[@62grantgilmore]

Thrifty's was always my favorite drug store and I love their award winning ice cream.

I have news for ya, Walmart isn't even close to going under, they have been opening and closing stores for years. Walmart makes one billion a day in profit and they aren't slowing down

I've cut way back on spending, pouring more into our mortgage to pay it off faster, putting money in savings.

[@arthurlambert6418]

Some Walmart stores are managed terribly. Always cluddered & disorganized !

[@drewstead316]

The flip side of extreme inflation is deflation and we're starting to see it as Ikea, Michael's, Walmart and Target roll back prices. Another indicator is fast food chains offereing $5 meal deals. If you can remember back to 2008-2012 there was $5 footlongs and other $5 deals. We're facing the stock market and average wages falling by 50-75%

[@mikehunt8997]

How about big democratic cities not precutting shoplifters, or shoplifting gangs?

[@annagreco7470]

Not TJ Maxx. Come on.

[@dimitriberozny3729]

TJ Maxx isn’t going anywhere!!!

[@jamiegossett]

going back to regional department stores would be more sustainable than nationwide. if Wal-Mart owned stores in 4 - 6 states, Target in 4-6 states, with other stores doing the same, then they wouldn't have to spread there resources over such a large area and let others shoulder the burden. privately owned retailers could form to make up the rest. ditching online for physical stores would help alot. stop buying online so much. that is the big problem. online shopping needs to go the way of the DoDo.. locally made, locally grown, locally sold

[@azmike1]

Family Dollar is a legitimate loss for America. Thank you Amazon.

[@rightsdontcomewithpermits7073]

😂 no it is not. Moving manufacturing was a legitimate loss for America.

[@williamkelley7654]

Agreed. I have cancelled my Amazon and stopped shopping there. We have a gigantic "dollar store" that pretty much sells anything you might need, especially cheap chinese junk.

[@GenXamerica]

Thank China where half their vendors come from.

The decline started during the Reagan years when wealth was shifted from the middle class to the wealthy. A CEO used to make 10x his average worker’s salary, but now makes hundreds of times more. Tax rates and loopholes benefit the wealthy. Why is this a surprise?

[@annsaunders5768]

Businesses move out of our country when taxes get too high..Mass Exodus of the fortune businesses means a much smaller base, which means we pay more. Raising taxes on wealthy individuals means they pass those taxes on to the consumer of their product. We need government to get smaller, video gamers to get jobs, losing youth to drug addiction and overdose.... This country needs to get back to God. He is punishing the world for its sinfulness and sloth. When we start putting His ways first, He will show us ways to live better once again.
