JCP will go the way ot K-mart (already gone from here) and Sears

Sears was targeting the same demographic as JC Penneys and Monkey Ward. That demo seams to have split downwards to Kohls/Target/Walmart/Costco and upwards to Macys/Neiman Marcus/Dillards/Nordstroms.Their demographic seems to be dwindling and they may have been doomed anyway. The homoganza has just accelerated their demise.

K-Mart just got out-K-Marted by Wally World.

That “demographic” doesn't have the money they used to have in disposable income.

Personal wealth is down 40% in the last couple of years.

SO, did JCP and K-mart die from lack in the economy or economic suicide via gay-friendly ads/crummy customer service/high prices/etc/etc?
