FREEK, Why do you say that AMAZON jobs are bad?
Here in the North Vegas area there is a huge (very huge) Amazon warehouse which I have heard is hireing lots of people.
PELLIUS, Yea, Sears has been going downhill for the past 25+ years and I believe that they are spear-heading the demise of the vast majority of mall type shopping stores/experiences.
What do you think will take over the deserted shopping mall spaces within the next five years?
Skating rinks, ice hockey pavilions, gyms, parking lots, etc.

?
PS ... How is the Ala Moana Shopping Center doing? (Sears, Longs, Liberty House, Bubba Gumps, etc?)
Did the ever build a movie theater there?
