<DIV>Interesting discussion it is surprising how wide spread around the world
the support for decentralization is even with</DIV>
<DIV>its problems warts and whiskers. </DIV>
<DIV>Growing up in the middle of the 20th century I remember when there
were A & Ps, IGAs Rexalls</DIV>
<DIV>Texacos etc. scattered all across the United States. people were optimistic
and the future bright.</DIV>
<DIV>Then came the alphabet soup CFOs CEOs MBA and the Walmarta, Enrons,
the dotcoms and all the rest.</DIV>
<DIV>Now we have the 1 % and the greatest misdistribution of wealth known to
mankind. </DIV>
<DIV>Some how I just do not feel comfortable about the idea of massive
centralization.</DIV>
<DIV>But then again consider what would happen today if Abraham Lincoln was
caught returning some little old lady’s cash</DIV>
<DIV>by one of todays CFOs or MBAs</DIV>
