Nostalgia is Big Business for Clothing Company

21310675442_big-business-logo-upgrade3.jpgVintage clothing sites are popping up all over the Web, and thrift stores are all the rage. Incorporating vintage pieces into the modern wardrobe has become the latest fad as parents and kids of all ages make a grab for days gone by.

Denim Apparel Group, a publicly traded company, bet heavily on that enthusiasm when it recently acquired retro-vintage sportswear company Moonlight Graham, named for a rightfielder who played one game in the majors for the now-defunct New York Giants.

The California-based company has rights to the movies “Field of Dreams” and “Animal House,” car company General Motors, Major League Baseball, and beverage giant Cadbury Schwepps, as well as Kellogg’s and other retro Americana.

Founder and president Bart Silberman has Moonlight Graham poised to become an arbiter of cool, with designs and fabrics that set the company apart from other casual sportswear.

“You don’t have to be a fan of the New York Mets, Dr Pepper, a 1970 Chevelle SS, Budweiser or the Talking Heads to appreciate what we do,” Silberman said. “Our artwork and quality tend to cross over. Of course it appeals to the hardcore fans out there, but a large amount of our business is done solely on the basis of cool art.”

Firmly entrenched in its Melrose location, Moonlight Graham is now exploring new retail locations. Prospects include Armitage Avenue in Chicago’s Lincoln Park, Sawgrass Mills in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Thompson Street in New York near New York University and Boston’s Newbury Street shopping district.

Business owner

11310675584_nyc-corporations.jpgThey are the big cheese of our time. They are the big time people that make all the money. They are the collectors. They are the entrepreneurs of our time. Ladies and gentlemen I present the business owner, and they are not seen to often. Those big business owners are the ones in the back ground and remember what I said, the ones that are behind the scenes make all the money. So for example have you ever been to a restaurant? I’m sure you have.
Well tell me what you see there. Usually you see waiters, bartenders, cashiers, and maybe the restaurant manager (Though I hope you haven’t). All these people you see are the workers for the owner of the restaurant. They are the ones that have jobs and make the 10% of us money. While the ones that are the owners they are the ones that really are the big cheeses .
They are the ones that make the real profit of the restaurant. They are the ones that make 90% of the us money along with their partners the investors. They are the ones that build assets rather than build liabilities, like the 90% of Americans the make only 10% of the money. The big time business owners also pay less in taxes. Why? Well if you employed 300,000 workers would the government want you to downsize those workers? And would the government want you to struggle and have to downsize hundreds of thousands even millions of workers that are under you? I didn’t think so.
So the government will be a little bit more kinder to you than they would the workers for the workers are the ones that don’t have anyone under them. So that is why taxes raise on the workers so much because they work for the rich and own no one instead of being rich and owning everyone in a sense. Also another example, if the government raised taxes on you and you employed 300,000 people that ate at your money. You could easily go to another country where the taxes are lower and where the people worked for much less than they do at America and what will happen to the 300,000 people you left behind?
They will be downsized and you will be upgraded because of all the money you saved from another country. So what am I saying? I am saying that the government will lower taxes on the richest ones for they employ the works and the workers will fill in the gap. This is happening now to. Workers are getting downsized and the companies are moving overseas. Why? Because people don’t have enough money anymore to buy things from them so they re seeing a decrease in profit so that is another reason to move. I am not an advocate to move out of the U.S. in fact that is the last thing I want to happen but I am just telling you what I happening from my point of view and from common sense really. I mean it just takes a little thought to figure this out and I’ll give you a scenario to prove it. Lets say you’re a wealthy business owner.
You have been seeing a decrease in profit because people don’t want to buy your products because of the financial crises so you raise the prices hoping to make up for the gap. However because of the raise in prices you lose a lot of your valuable costumers. On top of that the government raises taxes on you and the workers are begging for higher salaries. Wouldn’t you want to move out of the country and go overseas? If you do your employees will work for less, there is no financial crises to worry about, there are lower taxes to pay and as a plus your workers will work more diligently.
Although you hate the idea of going overseas your profit is still lowering without end. So would you? I am not taking any sides but I am just trying to get both point of views down so next time just try not only to think of your own situation and think that the rich are greedy snobs but think of what situation they might be in. Also there are so that are dirty and mean. So My point is that is why the government offers tax advantages to the rich because they don’t want to make the situation worse and unemployed those workers.
Also when you offer tax advantages someone’s got to fill in the gap so if not the rich for being employers and not the poor for not having money in the first place, then who do you think will fill in the gap? The middle class workers of course but things are starting to get to tough for them to. Also if you have anything you wish to say to me please do not hesitate to E-mail me at Trenzel123@yahoo.com.
