Its profits come from buying productive firms, loading them with debt, abusing their suppliers, workers and customers, and driving them into ground, stiffing all of them - and the company's creditors. The #mafia have a name for this. They call it a "#BustOut":

i don't know if anyone else will find this interesting, but I was recently in a midwestern basement and came across an old #Sears furnace humidifier, and a Sears electronic air cleaner. Pretty neat.

The bust out tactic wasn't limited to mocking middlebrow family restaurants. For years, the crooks who ran these ops did a brisk trade in blaming the internet. Why did #Sears tank? Everyone knows that the 19th century business was an antique, incapable of mounting a challenge in the age of e-commerce.

At the time of its opening in 1939, the Downtown Sears location was the largest department store in Houston.
The store closed in 2018 and the property, owned by Rice University, began undergoing renovations with the goal of transforming the building into a tech incubation and startup center.
In 2021, The Ion opened for use as a tech innovation hub. https://www.ionhouston.com/

Dear friends,
Today's image features an impromptu #portrait. This #photograph was taken in 2015. He was an appliance salesman at a #Sears department store.
That store is now gone along with most of the Sears stores.

A clipping from the #1975 #Sears Christmas catalog for "Headphone Radios." I love that the first example they give for an activity you can do while wearing them is "hours of hiking." 😂

In 2010 I took a photo of the best #Sears sign. This was out on Long Island somewhere.

I was a kid when I first heard of #Pelé sometime in the late ‘70s. In 1981, he endorsed the originally titled “Championship Soccer” cartridge for the #Atari 2600. That name was soon changed to “Pelé’s Soccer.” I remember scoring a copy of it at #Sears for $1.99 new a year or so later and was thrilled to get a game so cheap. Plus it was really fun, so that was a plus. Anyway, #RIPPelé. #Soccer may not be big in the States, but you’re still a legend to us.
