Mattress stores have one of the highest markups of any industry: $15 of materials, $5 labor, $5 shipping, and then sell it "on sale" for $800.
(Traditional) mattresses are an even bigger scam than diamonds.

I forgot to add one reason why stores would be CLOSED in an area.
Many of these properties are owned by giant hedge funds. They paid "X" amount for the property, and charge "Y" amount rent from the store owners. They list these properties as "assets" that they own.
But here's the problem. When the economy goes down they refuse to lower rents to keep the whole property utilized. If they charge 50% of "Y" for rent then the "valuation" of the property becomes 50% of "X". So they would rather have the storefront sit empty than lower the rent (and thus ADMIT) that the property is not worth what they CLAIM it's worth in their assets column.
There's probably 50 TRILLION of assets like this that don't really exist in North America, and the reason why they don't make it illegal to "sit" on properties like this (and make areas "ghost towns") is because it would crash the whole financial system to ADMIT that they have ALREADY lost 50 TRILLION dollars.
Entire sections of some towns are abandoned and shuttered because of this hedge fund bullshit.
FYI. I'm sure there are at least a few "ghost towns" out there that are really DUMBs or secret bases.
I bet they would probably give themselves away within minutes by having unmarked government vehicles roaming around an otherwise blighted abandoned town.
Just go there and see if "black vans" start following you around.

>He implies the future will be filled with stupid rednecks and not once shows a society filled with mystery meat abominations and niggers, which is what America will REALLY look like 500 years from now.
1) When America sucks as much as every other country then shit skins will not bother to move there.
2) A LOT of the things that whites do keep shit skins alive (free food, producing antibiotics, doctors to treat bullet wounds, police to protect THEM from angry whites).
When whites become incompetent then shit skins will die at disproportionate rates. Also consider that if the average white IQ is 70 then the average mexican IQ will be 60 and the average black IQ will be 50. At those levels it would be hard for them to not die every time they left the house.

except it isn't actually a budget surplus and they're lying again. the budget is increasing our debt but tariffs reduced the amount our debt increased by 27 billion, which wasn't in the budget, so they are calling that exact number a "budget surplus" despite there being no budget surplus and our debt is still increasing. i fucking hate it here.

>7/10/2025 public debt $36,595,101,611,079.13
so the debt increased by $380,000,000,000.00ish dollars from june until 2 days ago, that isn't a budget surplus.
