Why are America’s favorite stores disappearing — and why isn’t Amazon the real reason?

In 2025, empty malls, closed storefronts, and “Store Closing” signs have become a common sight across the United States. From legacy brands like Sears and Toys “R” Us to discount chains like Big Lots and Dollar General, American retail is collapsing at a historic pace.

But this crisis isn’t just about online shopping or changing consumer habits.

In this video, we break down the real forces behind America’s retail decline — from wage stagnation and rising living costs to the “trade-down” economy and the hidden role of private equity. As the American middle class shrinks, the stores built to serve it are disappearing too.

This isn’t the fall of retail.
It’s the economic erosion of the American middle class.

🔎 In this video, you’ll learn:

Why store closures are accelerating in 2025

Why Amazon isn’t the real culprit

How inflation and stagnant wages changed how Americans shop

Why discount retailers are thriving while mid-range stores collapse

How private equity is stripping value from American communities

📉 The empty stores in your town are not accidents — they’re symptoms.
