IKEA. IKEA is the world's most successful furniture outlet and they want to stay that way. Now,

IKEA wants to add new store locations to respond to changes in the way people live in shop.

And right now, most IKEA's are in suburban areas outside major cities. But the company says it

over the next 20 years, fewer people are going to be driving or will even have cars. Obviously,

they're talking about millennials and I bet you that's not true, but that's a whole different day.

So IKEA is hunting for prime downtown locations in big cities worldwide. They're looking in

Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Mumbai. Always loves saying Mumbai.

And they're also looking in New York City. Now, to elected officials in almost all of these cities,

this is great news. Big company wants to invest in their downtown areas, means tax dollars,

ancillary businesses and more economic activity. But you IKEA, exactly, is it better be where if you

really want to open a New York store, you better come up with a plan to deal with New York liberals.

They hate big business. They might like your furniture, but they don't want to pay for it. And they

will run big business out of town whenever they can ask Amazon about that. Bezos, you'll tell you,

I can't wait to see this.
