I echo what Sally said. Why is it outrageous when an independent bookstore goes under, but when the small business is a clothing boutique, it's ok?
And I think that DC is becoming more casual in its attire, but that might be more due to college kids coming in and having no clue how to dress professionally more than a cultural shift.

I wonder when the settlers were traveling out west to stake their land, they figured if they ran into trouble the Government would provide everything? Wait no, they came to American to get away from big Government. People need to be accountable for their own healthcare. I am so tired of this entitlement society. As a single mom, I have provided my ... Read Morechilds healthcare, food, shelter and a good life on my own. I was raised to do what it takes to provide these things, never once have I looked to the Government to support me. Being a "good country" is not providing people with free health care. It's giving the people the freedom to succeed or fail and if they fail, it's their choice-Regardless they need to get off their ass and get a job or maybe two to support themselves and family. I did and am the better for it.

What concerns me is that my house lost $100,000 value! When was that price inflated? When was it median? Home values are market established. When people get credit and start buying houses, sales will go up, prices will go up. It's the banks (even with bailouts) and mortgage companies (who no longer give out loans (on their own falsified ... Read Moreborrowers' financial info). While banks and mortgage companies hold the cash to increase their bottom line, there will be fewer loans. How did all these banks suddenly afford to pay back Fed.
