Your Economy (No Politics)

[al44]

I saw the same thing happenning to the dollar stores near here starting last summer. The best one closed recently due to higher costs. It was literally a supermarket with nothing priced higher than a buck. You could even get fresh cut lunch meats. This area has been economically depressed for many years and dollar stores thrive. Unlike most of the rest of the country I do see light at the end of the tunnel. I'm sitting right on top of the Marcellus Shale natural gas field. This area is booming right now with drilling companies going like wildfire putting in wells. A lot of people have been put back to work. Too bad it's only a regional thing.
