[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s just really too bad that Pleasant Pops in particular was forced out by their landlord. They are the epitomization of what we should want in our neighborhoods— a small business, providing a social space, serving cool unique desserts, kid-friendly, with a small play area even. Does anyone know the Pleasant Pops owners? What we should do is lobby the landlord to restore their lease at a fair rate.[/quote] Let’s take this a step further: we can pool our money together, buy the building from the current landlord, and lease it to Pleasant Pops at a fair rate Or we could let Pleasant Pops move keep the space for free![/quote] I think structural economic solutions to fix our unfair bias towards large corporations would be better. We’d probably be better off showing up at the FTC and asking them to refocus on real antitrust to level the playing field for all businesses.[/quote]
