Yes.

2018-07-26 18:47:17 UTC  

Napstar was amazng.

2018-07-26 18:47:23 UTC  

Then you remember how we were told that every store in the country was going to be dead.

2018-07-26 18:47:30 UTC  

The recording industry was going to die.

2018-07-26 18:48:09 UTC  

Most local stores did die, and the record industry hasn't sold more new music than old music 3 years running.

2018-07-26 18:48:24 UTC  

Sure, there's less profit in running stores now and the recording industry is not as all-powerful as it once was, but Wal-mart is still around Coffee shops are everywhere and there's more music now than ever.

2018-07-26 18:48:57 UTC  

Everyone is making way less money.

2018-07-26 18:49:29 UTC  

No one is buying music, at least no one under 40.

2018-07-26 18:49:52 UTC  

Or some extremely small subset of audiophiles.

2018-07-26 18:50:09 UTC  

Because their streaming instead.

2018-07-26 18:50:38 UTC  

It's a different equation but serves the same purpose.

2018-07-26 18:50:44 UTC  

And requires support staff as well.

2018-07-26 18:51:08 UTC  

Toys R Us, block buster, radio shack, circuit city, all dead.

2018-07-26 18:51:16 UTC  

As for local stores, that was being said about Wal-Mart.

2018-07-26 18:51:47 UTC  

Quit looking at just the businesses that died and look at some of the new ones.

2018-07-26 18:51:58 UTC  

like who?

2018-07-26 18:52:11 UTC  

Practically anything online for one.

2018-07-26 18:52:18 UTC  

Local stores.

2018-07-26 18:52:19 UTC  

The massive rise of resturants of every shape and size.

2018-07-26 18:52:45 UTC  

Okay I'll give you restaurants, but that's not a store.

2018-07-26 18:53:20 UTC  

Coffee shops are kind of the same thing too.

2018-07-26 18:53:36 UTC  

We're arguing classifications.

2018-07-26 18:53:45 UTC  

My point is that new opportunities arise.

2018-07-26 18:53:56 UTC  

People still want stuff, they just are limited in different ways.

2018-07-26 18:54:33 UTC  

That's not the same thing at all. Flint MI would be a better example of what happens when a cheep workforce take over from an experianced one.

2018-07-26 18:54:56 UTC  

Flint has it own litany of issues.

2018-07-26 18:55:11 UTC  

There are cities growing at the same time.

2018-07-26 18:55:35 UTC  

The main one is the automobile, steel, and manufacture moving out of the US.

2018-07-26 18:55:38 UTC  

I got to go.

2018-07-26 18:55:46 UTC  

Okay have a good one.

2018-07-26 18:55:48 UTC  

Real life stuff.

2018-07-26 18:56:04 UTC  

Indeed, more important.

2018-07-27 21:14:00 UTC  

serious question, is the democratic party going to survive? perhaps in name only is I see a restructuring...

2018-07-27 21:34:12 UTC  

Barring any unforeseen disaster, I think they don't retake control of the house/Senate and get blown out in 2020. The 2020 loss will lead to reform of the party

2018-07-27 21:34:31 UTC  

Basically, I think what Styx thinks on this

2018-07-27 22:11:20 UTC  

what dan and styx said

2018-07-27 22:12:40 UTC  

Styx said it first. I go to Styx when I need to know what to think

2018-07-27 22:26:49 UTC  

link to said styx video?

2018-07-27 23:11:56 UTC  

@LotheronPrime he says it over several videos but the general idea is in this video https://youtu.be/1nNzxR1FINY

2018-07-27 23:24:11 UTC  

ahh ok I thought it was a specific video
