Unions are poison so I don’t blame them.

Unions are reaction on bad conditions in workplace. Europeans aggressive busting unions in 19th century effectively went to Marx writing Capital and Lenin building communist empire which you have known as USSR. Continue with this rhetoric and experience communist revolution by people having nothing to lose.

A business decided to close a location. What’s wrong with that exactly?

In Europe intentional busting of unions would put business into a lot of hot water.

TL;DR: The store and two others are in dying malls, so they are closing.
