      The stores were often bustling with activity, and Kmart held a special place in the memories of those who grew up shopping there during that time.

    There are 324 branches of K-Mart operating in Australia and New Zealand. Not the same, you say? Go look!

      Thanks for feedback. Actually, K-Mart in Australia and New Zealand is a separate entity from the K-Mart brand in the U.S. While they share the same name, the Australian and New Zealand K-Mart stores are owned by the Wesfarmers group, not the original U.S.-based company.

    Trump won't do it, but a Dem gov't should bail out and help reestablish K-Mart so that Walmart won't have a monopoly. They can compete and make the prices lower for all us commoners. (Target is so expensive now that it's not really a discount store anymore.)

      Reviving a retail chain like K-Mart would be a challenging proposition for any government, including a Democratic administration. K-Mart's decline stemmed from intense competition, outdated stores, and poor management decisions over decades. :)
