So how bad is it, really?

Well, there were too damn many stores and not enough consumer spending
to support all that infrastructure and debt. Thousands of stores closed in 2017
so I gotta' wonder about those job numbers pushing up the markets.

No more Toys 'R' Us. That really sucks the big one... :flail:

It is not the jobs that are pushing up the market. The market is going up because Obama goosed the debt and that money has to go somewhere.

they could be valuable one day, now that the flow of plastic landfill will slow down (-:

The numbers and the markets haven't made a whole lot of sense to me for quite some time.
