You may remember that Adam and I went to Rack and Soul in my neighborhood a few weeks ago for barbecue. The whole front part of the restaurant had been boarded up for a couple months, but the back part around the corner was still open. I assumed they were renovating. Nope. The plywood walls came down the other day to reveal a brand spankin' new Verizon Wireless outlet. Yuk. I can't described the reaction I had when I was faced with the pristine composite stone siding of the new building. I swear I could smell the new carpet from outside. Look at poor independent-business, R&S back there trying to survive. Sad. Doesn't Verizon Wireless already rule the world? Why's it gotta rule the block?

Next it will be CVS and Starbucks moving in nextdoor and it will look just like every other city corner in the USA!
It's not fair to small businesses everywhere.
