There may be no better warning sign for Democrat-run cities and states than a company as wildly successful as Buc-ee’s deciding that some communities simply aren’t worth the trouble.

 Buc-ee’s CEO Arch “Beaver” Aplin III recently made it clear that the Texas-based travel-center giant is increasingly interested in expanding in places where leaders and residents appreciate what the company brings to their communities. At a recent grand opening in Arkansas, Aplin said that life is too short to try to build in places that don’t appreciate what Buc-ee’s is bringing.That statement should make politicians sit up and pay attention.

 Buc-ee’s is not some struggling mom-and-pop operation looking for an excuse to leave. It is an enormously successful company that creates jobs, attracts travelers, generates economic activity and invests millions of dollars into communities. Its typical travel centers span roughly 74,000 square feet and can create more than 200 jobs.

So when a company like this starts saying, “We would rather build somewhere else,” the question shouldn’t simply be, “Why won’t they come here?” The better question is: What are we doing that makes them want to go somewhere else?

Google Exodus..

AI Overview
Google has faced waves of backlash and negative reviews from users deleting the app, but there are no official reports showing a measurable drop in overall corporate traffic. [1]

The Name Change Reason

• Google updated Google Maps to display "Lake America" for U.S. users to match the U.S. Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) database.

• President Donald Trump signed an executive order forcing the federal designation change during trade disputes with Canada.

• Canadian users still see "Lake Ontario", and international users see both names. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

User Pushback

• Many users review-bombed Google Maps and stated they switched to alternatives like MapQuest.

• MapQuest gained public attention by stating it would not adopt the federal renaming.

• Explore user feedback and discussions on the Reddit Google Maps Community.

• Read the official corporate explanation on the Google Maps Blog.

• Read reporting on alternative map responses from The Hill. [1, 2, 3, 4]

If you want, I can help you find alternative mapping services that do not use official U.S. government data registries.

I wish more businesses closed on Sundays.  I miss the old blue laws.  Gave people more time at home and with family.
 

Successful businesses don't plant themselves into blue hot zones like the **** of Baltimore Johnny lives in.

I watched this kind of logic for 60 years and all it does is promote corruption into next generation gaps forward daily here. Honesty comes from the sole brain navigating time living as proportionately existing as conceived into their relative time being alive as eternally separated by their chromosomes position here now.

Self evident time alive is just that. Ancestors evolve, people ignore their own time evolving equally inhabiting time daily here as an ever changing form that cannot create or destroy the universe with contextual ideas life exceeds their own navigating space in plain sight, since date of birth.

Power of suggesting life exceeds adapting since conception has corrupted my own ancestral lineage inside out. I navigate time by understanding exactly where I inhabit space without social consensus telling me who I am in their social narrative.

South of the Border has been in decay for decades.  Anyone who stays there doesn't travel that much.
