Shopping malls are closing all over the country. Business is really being affected by the lack of ability to generate revenue or secure credit to purchase inventory in bulk at a cheaper or discount rate for resale rights. The lack of purchase power has been felt severely by the manufacturing sector and for states like Wisconsin and Michigan. One key indicator is the lack of employers willing to hire and the lack of orders causing several small manufactures to file bankruptcy in Michigan. One of the large problems several manufactures face is the automatic classification the general public and government thinks about when discussing manufacturing. The general public thinks about the automotive industry when talking about manufacturing and little is done to help the manufacturing creating office supplies or for manufactures who create shingles for a roof.
