It's economic Darwinism... not good... not bad.... just depends on how/who
adapts!

There are only three things I'm wary about... the agglutinated businesses
(i.e. Am***n), the profit per transaction based businesses (boxes,
W**mart),
and the people selling out of their garages...I'm not conviced they're a
net
"benefit" to the retail world....or to individual manufacturers.

It may take years to play out, but I think it is going to be a serious net
loss to the economy as we know it. Especially the second example. As we go
from a manufacturing based economy to a casino gambling based economy we sit
back and admire the goods we bought at such low prices until . . . . . . . .

Then the Pogo theory comes in to play. We have met the enemy and it is us.
