The Last Will and Testament of Circuit City

Harry writes "Sunday is the final day of business for Circuit City, the once-dominant national consumer electronics chain done in by the rise of Best Buy, the crummy economy, and multiple failings of its own. I paid a final visit of respect to my local store, and found that they'd gotten rid of just about all the unopened electronics products, and were therefore selling off stuff like broken computers and the toilet-paper dispenser from the restroom. Whether or not you were ever a fan, it was a sad scene." NPR has a segment on the end of the Circuit City era as well.

You forgot another big reason for a company to disappear instead of shrink : Governmental involvement.

Good job right wing talking-point machine!

Of course all the signs pointing to how deregulation has hurt our whole economy only is apparent in spades. Keep shilling that party line!
