Amazons new grocery store highlights a huge hole in Donald Trumps promise on jobs

[Nay]

55. Stores seem to be collapsing already. Now, I admit that I never was much of

a shopper. I generally go in with an item in mind, look at the selection, buy it, and get the hell out. I might eyeball stuff on my way out, but shopping was never a pleasure or a hobby.

Last week I wanted to buy a couple of long-sleeved T shirts for Mr Nay. None to be found! Anywhere! There were plenty of coats, hoodies, jackets, vests, short-sleeved T shirts, but no long. When I was in the stores (Penney, Sears, Marshall's, Steinmart, Dick's Sporting Goods) I was pretty unimpressed with the styles, patterns, designs, and quality of almost all the stuff. IMO, color/styling, patterns, etc., have become extremely ugly over the past 10 or 15 years, but that may just be me. It's as if everyone has given up on doing anything competently, and ugly crap from China is all that is available in what used to be the stores shopped by middle class consumers.

I finally had to order online and hope the shirts fit. I hate ordering clothing on line, but what can you do?

PS -- I went on the weekend and none of the stores were busy. There were lots of cars in the lot, but the stores didn't seem full at all.
