BUT...The reality is, most of these mom and pop stores have been wiped out, because:
Obongo - You didn't build that (the hell we didn't)
Obongo care $$$$$$
2008 phinancial phuckery
2016 phinancial phuckery
C19 = Death blow
Unfair competition from multiple big box stores
Furthermore, It takes a severely disciplined "upright citizen" to have the patience to wait, when the little store doesn't have what you want right then and there, and they tell you, "I can order it". How many actually order it there vs how many go to a big box and purchase outright or hit Amazon and order while walking to the car in the parking lot?
Sounds real neat in conversation about doing the right thing, but the truth is, human nature has other ideas... and that's what small businesses have to contend with right now...not to mention people who don't produce anything demanding top quality, low prices, 24/7 support, a lifetime warranty and a reach around.
Oh, BTW phuck your dollar stores and everything in them.
Yes...Yes they should.
