The focus on sales and deals and shit has been an attempt to compete with first Walmart and target, and then Amazon.

Used to be that department stores were where you went when you needed stuff. At one point, it was just where you went shopping for your general life. They tended to lower prices than boutiques through volume and you’d go to more specific, more expensive stores for more specific things.

Today, yeah. Why bother? You actually can find better clothes at Macy’s and Penny’s than Walmart, but you have to dig, and realize that the real Levi 501s are going to be $30 more than the modern Levi stretch fit trash. (And $30 less than buying them at the Levi store.)

I think the thing in this case is that it is the job of police to pull over a box truck full of human cargo. The implication here is so you think they’d have let a truck they knew was full of immigrants just drive away?
