2014 may be for the rest of the world but I don't ever see Michigan recovering.

Hell, where I live, we still never recovered from the recession of 1990!

That's right. I forgot they closed down the S&W plant/plants. A crying shame

No no no no no! S&W is alive and well!

It's tons of other stores, companies and entire shopping centers that have closed or had huge permanent layoffs. We even had a hospital close in 1995.

I could swear they did close down some armories there.

Winchester/U.S. Repeating Arms Co. down in New Haven, Connecticut shut down in 2006, and the Springfield Armory closed in 1968.

Colt, Ruger, Savage, they're still in business as far as I'm aware.

I wonder if we could outsource Congress.

At their wage level we ordinary folks could afford to bribe them, not just the gang on K street.
