Bricks-and-mortar retail would be dead anyway.

Nobody goes to a store with a limited inventory to buy stuff, when you can order from a vast inventory online.

GNC has walked through death’s door after knocking on it for years. The 85-year-old vitamin seller filed for bankruptcy in late June after years of battling waning sales and a debt load north of $1 billion. GNC plans to shutter up to 1,200 stores across the U.S. The company operates more than 5,800 stores.

Wow.

There really is no future now.

The US is a bankrupt warmongering police state.

You are under house arrest.

The USA is not a democracy.

You cannot go to school or start a business.

Everything is illegal.

You cannot get married or divorced.

The border is closed.

You do not have free speech, you can't go to church, reporters and lawyers are being arrested, guns are illegal, you don't have the right to remain silent, there is forfeiture, the government has torture, and you can be extrajudicially assassinated.

There is no rule of law.

Phones and cars can be tracked.

The economy has collapsed.

All according to plan.

Like I said in another post when this is over or when can we should all be supporting the small businesses and boycotting the Wally Worlds and Amazons of the economy.

The economy is becoming more and more monopolized.

We need to put a stop to it.

Honestly, did you see any future for bricks-and-mortar stores? Young adults were buying their clothes and croceries online even before the pandemic. Mom and pop operations were crushed by malls and hypermarkets, which will get destroyed by online giants.

My homie ran a pizza/chicken wing place.

He had a choice either shutdown or go 100% online.

So he shut the restaurant down, rented a warehouse, now people order food and it's delivered only. No front door.

Re: A scary number of retail companies are facing bankruptcy amid the coronavirus pandemic
There's absolutely no hope for the US.

The government wants everyone to be scared of terrorists, illegal immigrants, Communists, Russia, negroes, and viruses.

No one cares if someone is arrested, but Americans lose their heads if someone is released from prison.

No one minds if the Gestapo confiscates guns, but Americans become batshit insane if anyone protests.

Americans don't care if wearing a belt is illegal, but Americans would totally flip out if the penalty was only $1000.

Americans can't vote and anyone who wants to revolt is called a traitor and a terrorist.

The US collapse is not some kind of theory that will happen 100 years in the future. You don't have decades or years to prepare. The collapse is happening right now and you just need to look outside your window to see it.

Everything is illegal. You have no rights.

There is torture, checkpoints, curfews, lockdowns, martial law, NSA wiretapping, extrajudicial assassination, and churches and the borders are closed.

The nightmares that happened in the USSR, Nazi Germany, Cambodia, Vietnam, North Korea, Lebanon, Egypt, and the Ukraine will soon happen in the USA.

Banks will close. There will be hyperinflation. Companies will go bankrupt. The electricity, water, and Internet will be shut off. There will be starvation.

There will be death squads, show trials, and summary executions.

Americans will disappear.

There will be a civil war and WWIII will start.

Concentration camps will open.

Millions will die.

Wake up.

Look what's going down.

Drop out. Go Galt.
Stop paying taxes.

Pass the word.

Boycott them and support the smaller businesses.

I basically don't go to Wally World at all anymore.

I got to a local grocery store and the dollar store instead.

If you need something that small businesses around you don't sell then buy from a small business online.

It's that simple, don't give them any money.

Spreading freedom and democracy has turned into spreading monopolies and dictatorship... all in the name of fighting the unseen enemy...5aburnit:vlwc:

“Naturally, the common people don’t want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship…Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked(infected by the unseen enemy) and denounce the pacifists(no need to lock down, just protect the most vulnerable crowd) for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.”– Hermann Goering

Almost every problem in the US is caused by the government.

Rents and medical care are expensive because of regulations.

The economy is collapsing because everyone is under house arrest.

Tuition is expensive because of student loans.

The debt is increasing because of wars and welfare.

Airline tickets are expensive because foreign airlines cannot fly domestic routes.

Puerto Rico couldn't recover from a hurricane faster because of the Jones Act.

Prisons are crowded because everything is illegal.

Families fall apart because females marry the state instead of a man.
