What you are describing is capitalism.

There are several small businesses that just want to provide livable means for themselves and their employees with a work/ life balance for all. They don’t want to dominate the world, they just want a good life and to give a service back to their community. In the meantime. They are also sourcing as many as possible of their resources from other local farms and companies that also employ local people.

This is how the world should work and capitalism has destroyed that through corporate entities taking advantage of anyone below them/ getting tax breaks. There is a change going on. Corporations are failing and the local movement of putting money directly back into locals hands is happening.

I have so much faith in our future generations that will only support locally owned small businesses over chains. They are bankrupting malls, chains and spending their money locally.

You are really making a difference and are appreciated!

Keep fighting! Be local and make local goods your top priority

So this is… ridiculous, but also well done compared to others I’ve seen which have shifted with turns.

I just can’t help but to picture the set up on how to get it this high in the first place. Did someone stack this and then use a forklift to put it in the truck as one unit? Did they have super big ladders to pack it this high? I want to know about the “how” more than anything.

And there’s no way, they aren’t super proud to pull this off.

Everyone I know that is 45 years or younger avoids chain businesses at all costs. They value supporting small local businesses with inventive menus and selections. There are a ton of great options. These aren’t the days of Bob Evans, Bed Bath and Beyond and malls anymore. I think that’s a wonderful thing and the small businesses are sure making their mark. Chains and generic food aren’t of any interest to most young people.
