I'm not sure where you live, but I've been down main street over the weekend, and every storefront on it seems to be open for business, just like they were in 2019.

Some of the players changed, but they've also changed since 2015 and 2011, yet I don't hear anyone complaining about either of those years.

If I live to 2073, I fully expect to still keep hearing the meme that half of the small businesses in this country permanently closed in 2020. It'll be as nonsensical then as it is today.

They very likely did close! And then they re-opened, some under new auspices. It happens and it's a signal that American dynamism is alive and well!
