Will it hurt the economy? Eh, a little, (economy meaning those who hold stock on Wall Street and/or the 1%), but it won't make a single difference in people finding a decent job. The economy can't be hurt much more than it is. The government won't allow it to get any worse. The money earned on Thanksgiving weekend will NOT create jobs. Save your money that weekend. DO NOT shop Thanksgiving weekend. You do not 'need' anything THAT bad. You are just handing your money over to company profits, their CEO's Christmas bonuses, and Wall Street.
