Description
Join the conversation with TJ Smith. In this riveting episode of the TJ Smith Podcast, we delve into the complex world of dollar stores, exploring their rapid expansion across the U.S. and the impact this has on local communities. We dissect the arguments for and against these retail giants, particularly within Baltimore, where city council members and residents voice their concerns over crime, competition with small businesses, and the perceived decline in community aesthetics. With expert insights and listener calls, we paint a thorough picture of this modern retail dilemma.
