Live-Work-Play-Shop-Learn in 2020
We are experiencing the dramatic change in the demand for retail space. Retailers have changed the market from brick-and-mortar shopping centers to online shopping.
Are retailers selecting only “A” locations for stores and using online as the supplement OR by 2020, will it be reversed – most retailers will sell online and supplement with well located bricks and mortar stores?
If your purchases on the internet were taxed HIGHER than bought at a brick-and-mortar store, would you still buy it on the internet?
Taxing internet purchases may be the only way to bring in more government revenue.
Or to generate more revenue state governments will install toll booths on all interstate highways.
When is the last time you drove on I-95 from Baltimore to Philadelphia? The cost to drive on this road is outrages and we paid to build it and now you have to pay to use it. This has nothing to do with shopping or does it?
