Imagine apartments built into what used to be department stores, (Oh, you're JC Penny 203? I'm at Sears 106). Get those old arcades up and running. Set up meal stations at the food court. Once people actually live there, stores will start to move back in.

If I'm unable to finish my life in my own home, that doesn't sound like a terrible option.

The amount of people who think the USA is the same size as European countries is hilarious.

Well, Russia is a European country. Also Russia is largest country in the world.
