We get all bent out of shape when we hear about these stores closing but no one seemed to care when they were open?

Toys R Us, Kmart and Payless Shoes will soon be but distant memories. I'm always intrigued by how upset we get when we first hear the news about stores closing. If we're being real here if you love the store so much why didn't you go there when it was open?

To be clear, I absolutely don't want anyone to lose their jobs. I feel sorry for anyone in that situation.

There's also these viral petitions to bring these store back too.

Can't we let them die? They had their time. I feel like Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park.
