Stores Closing: Who’s To Blame?
The Obama administration isn’t shutting these stores down. Nor are they causing any slowdown in the economy to close them down.
It’s just a sign of the times.
This trend has been happening ever since the Internet, and more specifically Amazon, has come to redefine commerce in the 21st century. Do you blame Obama for Circuit City closing? Well, if you do, you’re an idiot, because they announced their stores were closing 4 days before he even took office.
Circuit City, CompUSA, Blockbuster, Borders… they all are tragedies of changing times 4-8 years ago. Sears, Radio Shack, Barnes & Noble, and others are all experiencing the same thing now. It happens in a capitalist society.

“The Obama administration isn’t shutting these stores down. Nor are they causing any slowdown in the economy to close them down. It’s just a sign of the times.”
Yes, it’s a sign of the times alright: a sign of the ongoing Second Great Depression (aka Great Depression 2.0) which is a direct result of the people whom Obama represents.
“This trend has been happening ever since the Internet, and more specifically Amazon, has come to redefine commerce in the 21st century.”
So it was the Internet who made Quiznos obsolete? Was it the Internet which caused Arby’s to close their doors in Houghton, Michigan? Was it the Internet which recently caused Krystal in Attalla, AL, Food World in Rainbow City, AL, Taco Bell in Gadsden, AL, and numerous other businesses across the nation to shut their doors?
Is it the Internet which is responsible for the sudden surge in pawn shops, thrift stores, and “you store it” lockers in my town?
“Circuit City, CompUSA, Blockbuster, Borders… they all are tragedies of changing times 4-8 years ago. Sears, Radio Shack, Barnes & Noble, and others are all experiencing the same thing now. It happens in a capitalist society.”
Sure–when you’re in a Great Depression. Which this administration (and all their various cronies in every branch of government) has done everything in their power to embrace and extend.
WAKE UP.
