It's going to get worse before it gets better
btw...
Marty only extracts rent from most of the restaurants on his properties, which the News and Record's Allen Johnson doesn't seem to understand. But Allen doesn't understand basic economics, so that's what we have for an 'opinion leader'.
More like a cheerleader of the uneducated variety whom everyone likes to look at anyway.
Doug Clark, Allen Johnson and Jeff Gauger didn't understand or foresee what happened last time the economy tanked, and their jobs are to not know or report as we decline once again.
They, along with the Triad Business Journal, are just cheerleaders for the 1%.
