Govt constantly raising the minimum wage above what the market will bear will do this every time. Add to that green new deal polices on food and animal products as well as artificially high energy prices will kill an economy every time. Govt created this situation and their response will be to raise taxes or those who remain - along with lessons not having been learned.
No it's Trump's fault his economic policies caused this not Biden
Remember Portland you VOTED FOR THIS ENJOY.
The rate things are going, Portland will become a wasteland with all these closures, from Walmart, to Cracker Barrel onto this...
The Portland politicians must be so proud. Businesses are closing there and that means more government benefits to hand out. Walmart and Cracker Barrel are following suit.
Sorry to see them go. Never be another one like it. Sad😔
Do you know Broceff Brokowski?
Congratulations. You voted for this.
😅😅
Go woke and go broke.
So sad cry cry . Sike!
WOW, I'm amazed that the TV announcer didn't state in his delivery that he had no idea why the deli is closing.
Every single place is closing in Portland. That town will be blank and nothing but homeless junkies by the end of the year.
"keep portland un-livable" Thanks Tina and thanks Ted.
Oregon is closing everything.
Don't feel sorry for them. They voted for it.
Not quite, those libbies still have their butt holes wide open.
No mention of crime in the area.
That reporter seems so happy about this
I think he drank the liberal cool aid
He gets to keep his job for now. Times ticking....
Same reason Walmart & Cracker Barrel are closing.
Joe Biden's America
Imagine conservatives and liberals split America in 2, separated by a wall. After 1 or 2 years, who do you think would be sneaking across to the other side, to escape to a better, safer, more prosperous place?
Cracker barrel, Walmart - Portland will have too go too other cities to eat or shop
steal and rob and destroy
I was lucky to see Portland before the portlandia effect happened and they became radical
Portland was a little weird but safe.
Hhahhaha. BUT, EVERYBODY in this story, including customers and the reporters, voted for dems, voted for this.
Lol they can't admit it
They are not leaving, They are being run out of town
Closing March 31st so there's enough time to get robbed 3 or 4 more times
🤣😂🤣😂🥰😍😄😀😁😆
Best Post lol
The death spiral of "compassionate" policies regarding homelessness and crime causing less foot traffic, less customers, store closings, lower tax revenue and finally general decline. You get what you vote for.
I don't know why any business stays here, time to let nature reclaim the city.
Everything is leaving Oregon. Even Oregon is leaving Oregon (Idaho). Wonder where it all went wrong?
Trump from 2017-2021 his economic policies
@Jared40 Another ignorant, indoctrinated and extremely naive lunatic leftist idiot!!!
