    How major US chains including Target, CVS, Macy's and Rite
    Aid were behind nearly 3,000 stores this year

    A host of retailers filed for bankruptcy or slimmed down
    their operations in 2023

    Bed Bath & Beyond shut 896, Foot Locker 545 and CVS 300

    Fears of a 'retail apocalypse' are rising as more bricks
    and mortar stores close

    . . .

    THANKS JOE !!!

    Sorry, but in-person beats online. Imagine - wage-
    earning nuance-getting HUMANS to converse with !!!

    Proposed, a "cyber-tax" of 10% on every online
    transaction, 20% for online/AI "medical"-related
    stuff where the consequences of mis-understanding
    can be rather serious. The money goes to all the
    humans disemployed.

    In short, what corps think they're gonna save by
    firing all their humans - don't let 'em GET it.

      THANKS JOE !
    Wow. How quickly the ignorant forget how Trump ignoring the covid threat
    set up supply chain problems that lasted years. And neither president
    can stamp out corporate greed that has CEOs thinking they are worth the
    salary of 300 average workers.
