Re Big 77 Acre Shopping Mall Near By Shutting Down, Not Renewing Leases, Local Media Pushing For More Houses

So I sent them a note:

Re the Sunrise Mall I live right near it. I remember when the 77 acres was woods. The mall opened in 1970, the start of a retail boom because the population was well off, one worker household, and imports were so much cheaper. A no brainer business start up. My friend opened up 8 small stores in Brooklyn, 65 employees getting minimum wage.

Because of the huge profits, more and more stores and malls were opening all over. But after 1975 at the same time, all the consumer product jobs were getting outsourced. So the customer base prosperity gradually declined, as retail grew. So wealth absorbing retail, shot itself in the foot by farming out wealth creating factory jobs. That trend culminated in 2008. Everything is in reverse. Manufacturing is coming back. Long term its been a 100 plus year cycle of Learn, Unlearn, and Relearn the global system is going thru now.

So, turning 77 acres into 308 houses on 1/4 acre lots? and add 4 people to each house? 1200 plus people added to the population that need jobs and services? I think the 77 acres should be turned into an industrial park that creates things of value the jobs that produce wealth for others to live off of. Factories produce wealth, everyone else absorbs wealth. If you know what I mean. Thats why the country is broke. China et al got the wealth creating producing of things jobs, and we got left with the sales and service of their things (wealth absorbing overhead) jobs.
