Online Shopping = Job Loss
We are seeing this scene more and more in our cities and towns. Brick and mortar stores are closing as people shop online for the sake of “convenience”. Next time you buy something online that you could go to the store and buy think of the children who depend on the adults that work in the retail industry. Store clerks, truck drivers, warehouse workers, private vendors, the utility companies that provide services to the store, the restaurants that may be in or built around the stores, the list of people impacted really does run deep. Ultimately it takes a toll on the overall economy. Who wants to see empty vandalized buildings everywhere? Not me.
