Re: [Mpls] Closing Businesses

[Tim Bonham]

But why should they?  Why would we want a business to keep this 
unprofitable store in operation, when the public doesn't want it open (as 
shown by their failure to buy things there)?  And it's not just a recent 
change, this store hasn't made money for 8 years (even when the economy was 
going good, under Clinton-Gore).

Our economy is not helped by subsidizing unprofitable & inefficient 
operations just to keep them going.  We are better off if they close; they 
will likely be replaced by something that can operate efficiently and 
attract customers.

Any why, with the tremendous subsidy and political
support given to the downtown Target can't Target Corp THEMSELVES float some
dough to the Broadway one to keep it afloat?

1. Don't feed the troll! Ignore obvious flame-bait.
2. If you don't like what's being discussed here, don't complain - change the subject 
(Mpls-specific, of course.)
