Welcome to Limbo, Population : Irrelavent Tulsa's two 'Novel Idea' bookstores closing: "A long-time Tulsa bookstore is closing, another victim of competition from the Internet and big discount stores. Novel Idea was unique to Tulsa. Wal-Mart, K-Mart and Target are not. Tulsa, being a fairly mid-sized city is prone to homogenization, wherein all the stores here are the same stores as every other city. When you live here, you live nowhere. There is no identity for a city that has nothing unique to offer its citizens that they cannot get somewhere else. More importantly, the money spent at national chains leaves your community. You still get the sales tax and the employee's salaries. But the revenues and profits leave. They can actually drain the vitality of your community by taking money out of the city cycle and siphoning it off to other communities. So there you go. Welcome to Wal-City. | |
