Target is supposed to be " Hip" but sells cheap stuff much like Wal mart to people who think they're hipper than Wal mart shoppers but are just clueless.
No progressives were hired to run things wanted to change base/core and it is not working

Small businesses went out of business because people cared less about "the personal touch" and more about being frugal with their money.....

People had to start being frugal with their money when their wages began dropping below poverty such as that of WalMart employees.
