Question of the Day: Black Thursday?

How do you feel about retailers, especially big box stores, staying open on Thanksgiving.

Sure, it's a free-enterprise system, etc. and businesses should be free to be open when ever they want. After all, the free market system, and capitalism, is the American way, etc.

On the other hand, people should have a little free time to themselves on a holiday, like the freedom to spend it with their families. All day: the entire day off, an actual paid holiday where you don't have to work.

What do you think: How do you feel about big retailers and small, from supermarkets to pharmacies to big box stores staying open on the Thanksgiving holiday?

Richard, I agree. This road has so many potholes that were fixed, it dips and the county trees haveRead More lifted it up in areas that now hold water. I have ben living here for over 30 years, and I cannot recall it ever being done. It needs to be done soon, I so agree with you. Maybe Mangano will see this and do something, then again if we lived in Bethpage, it would of been done already.
