Max Armstrong talks malls, a cooperative tax law benefit and the joys of home plumbing

Max Armstrong shares that the shopping mall near you could be hurting even without large stores, because many stores are not renewing their leases. From This Week in Agribusiness, there's a push to fix to the new tax law that gives cooperatives a significant tax advantage and USDA wants it changed. Max shares the 'fun' of a recent plumbing project that he couldn't have completed without help from a local hardware supplier.
