quote [ More than 3,500 stores are expected to close in the next couple of months. ]
As the grandfather I never knew probably used to say, "when a capitalist god shuts a door, he opens a window. A much, much smaller window, because technology allows a more efficient use of resources while requiring much fewer people."

Please, elaborate? Because over and over I've had conversations with people on this website expressing misinformed knowledge over topics that they've barely touched more than a Wikipedia article on. MY LIST was an attempt to encourage people to expand their knowledgebase and break through the site's echochamber. Instead, from all but a few people that actually read some of the books, I'm treated like an elitist by people who in turn are also claiming to be experts. If the list, which was requested btw, is condescending, perhaps that's because it was a direct response to the conversations this site.
