Imagine apartments built into what used to be department stores, (Oh, you’re JC Penny 203? I’m at Sears 106). Get those old arcades up and running. Set up meal stations at the food court. Once people actually live there, stores will start to move back in.

If I’m unable to finish my life in my own home, that doesn’t sound like a terrible option.

    (No train schedule can predict when the milk runs out!)

    How about YOU predicting when milk runs out? I’m not asking you to do five-year plan, but it’s easy to know when milk will run our.

    The country is so big, and we have so much empty land

    Russia is bigger and has more empty land. Despite Putin’s idiocy with invading other country.

      Ha, I thought that the blatant contradiction about having too much space and therefore not enough space would make the joke obvious, but I guess not.

      Also, a Canyonero isn’t a real vehicle. It was a joke from The Simpsons.

        The joke was obvious, and you even doubled down by suggesting people intentionally go to Bentonville. I appreciated it

        I just ignored that part because of it
