Well, the first thing I'd do is find another abandoned gas station, since he's already got that one.

Dang, I'd love to buy up a mess of cheap Made In China rebel flags at $5 per gross and sell them at $10 a pop to idiots.

Remember how everytime they hear Obama is going to ban guns, they go out and buy some more?

I'd get a big sign: "Get yours before Obama takes them all!"

Put the mess in a rented U-Haul truck and move to the next town when the sales drop at that location.

It's kind of a public service really. The more money you can get out of their pockets on something like this means there's less to go around for liquor and ammunition.
