Jewelry Store petition

There is hardly any threat from the jewelry industry taking over
anything. When saturation occurs they will start losing money
and attrition will occur. If they are all profitable then the
demand is there. The whole downtown area is there to cater to
cruise ship passengers. The sales tax revenue benefits the whole
community. If you do not like jewelry stores; open some other
type of business. If your idea has merit you might profit from
the economic risk taken, if not, you risk losing your shirt.
Mr. Bolling seems to have some personal issue with jewelry stores,
I don't shop in them and I do not care if ten more open. When
my undies get all twisted up I go fishing. More effective and
far more logical.
If I am missing some element to this seemingly non-issue please
clue me in.
