And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Back in the 1970's and 1980's I was a housewares buyer for several major department stores in several cities. It was a great job but around 1985, they began a major decline in business and eventually most of them went out of business ... or Macy's acquired them.
The reason I enjoy going to Sam's is because it looks like how I imagine the Decadent West would have been portrayed in Soviet propaganda, circa 1955.
ReplyDeleteThank a democrat.
ReplyDeleteI think Macy's still decorates their stores like this, so sad its fading away.
ReplyDelete...and an ashtray at every major aisle intersection. I miss my youth.
ReplyDeleteProbably the Macy's at Crenshaw and MLK. About a mile west of the Coliseum.
ReplyDeleteBack when LA was to move to, not from.
