@rayrockusa

I think broke. Tough row to hoe for small businesses.

This shopping mall is on the Yavapai Indian tribal land. They have raised the rents so high, no business that is smart will rent there. They will soon be turning that whole frontier mall area into the largest casino in arizona. The economy in Prescott is way better than you are making it sound.

Believe me...you are better than those skanks on cable TV.  DO NOT BELITTLE YOURSELF LIKE THAT AGAIN!

No way, There is a 2-screen movie theater in my home town of Wisconsin with a town population of around 3,000 that has been around since I was young like 20+ years ago. It is very run down and has replaced rows of seating with tables so that they can offer more "kitchen foods" like Pizza and breadsticks. That is, i'm sure the only thing keeping them going.

That was a Basha's grocery store that closed due to bankruptcy , Not a Fry's .

The indian cigarette store is still very busy as well as the Golden Corral & Home Depot

Don't stop making videos!

My view is changing toward everything being "bad" to this being GOOD. Consumerism is a sickness or plague on society. People buying tons of crap and being constantly entertained while the World is in wars and starving. Many people I know have multiple homes and do not see anything wrong with it. So be it. Me me me It must all be about ME!. No need to care about others. Let the chips fall where they will. The forest will be burned to the ground.

Thank you globalists for ruining the country. You all should be swinging for attempted murder. 100 years ago they hung someone for stealing a man's horse because a horse was his livelihood. The globalists have stolen all of our horses.

In my town we had a 4 theater movie complex built in 1972. It kept expanding and growing, and eventually became a 14 theater complex. It is massive. It closed in 2006, and sits there, an empty hulk. The mini mall next to it is almost totally vacant. What you have shown here is carbon copied many times over.
