  6. Here is my oldest on-hand computer / console, a Sears Tele-Games Hockey-Tennis II console from 1977.

    (It's on a little display shelf over the console shelf in the gaming corner of my computer room.)

  15. Totally bummed. After 40 years my #Sears #Craftsman shop vac has an issue. The run/off switch broke off right at the base of the shaft. Not sure I can even find the screws that hold it all together after this many years of use. I'll be wrecked if I can't fix it for a lousy on/off switch.

  25. Hey, I was trying to do an important research project for the last year, but despite the buzz, nobody seems to have uncovered it yet. The project is... Did #PopeLeoXIV ever work for #Sears, the department store or its affiliates, headquartered in #GreaterChicago? His legal name is #RobertPrevost if that helps. I used to work at Sears (during its recent struggling bankruptcy era) and it's neat the Pope is American, but I want to see if he has more similarities to me.

  33. Capitalism, in theory, is great. #Capitalism, as currently practiced, doesn't work very well.

    Many years ago I read Adam Smith's "The Wealth of Nations" [1]. If you don't understand #economics but want to, it's the second book I recommend you read [2] to get there. He describes how all the parts of the system work together, what influences other actors in the system, how it incorporates diverse feedback, and more.

    What we actually have today, though, only approximates what Smith describes. There's too many things gummed up with collusion and political and regulatory capture and a bunch of other things, so our #economies don't run very well.

    Illustration:

    Sears lasted longer in Canada than it did in the USA, but it still failed. At some point, #Sears #Canada shuttered its retail operations while it tried to figure out what to do. There was a large Sears warehouse in my city, visible from a busy freeway.

    So the company had no #revenue, but ongoing #expenses - like property #taxes. Some bright spark #MBA realized unimproved real estate was taxed at lower rates than buildings, so they tore the warehouse down, razed it.

    It was still completely full of #merchandise at the time. I watched it. Too much trouble to sell or give away, so off to the dump.

    Then Sears went bankrupt, somebody bought the land, and built a warehouse on it.

    [1] As was common then, its full title is ridiculously long.
    [2] The first, much easier read is Henry Hazlitt's "Economics in One Lesson".
