Because they make money. I suspect you'll find many liquor and gun stores in poor red neck areas as well. You can blame outside forces all you want but at the end of the day multi-generational poverty causes and perpetuates many issues on it's own.
- skookumchuck 8y agoThat's right. There's no conspiracy why people open liquor and gun stores and where they locate them, and no mystery. People open stores to make money. Greed trumps racism. Good luck opening a bookstore anywhere. They don't make money anymore, and any business model that relies on pity purchases is doomed to fail. Besides, there are already bookstores offering free books - public libraries.
