Here is a simple concept. Substitute Aaron Montgomery Ward for Jeff Bezos and we have the modern day comparison. Also, the year 1995 for 1872.

"In 1872 Aaron Montgomery Ward, a traveling dry goods salesman, started selling to farmers by mail through a one-page catalog list. By inventing the general merchandise mail-order catalog, Mr. Ward could keep prices low through bypassing the middlemen, like small-town shopkeepers and itinerant salesmen. "

Happy, Happy!

Wonderful year for proving that pigs can't fly. That business plans need to be written more from a perspective of business sense than creative liberty. That some ANALysts are bumbling idiots who can help precipitate such tremendous economic calamity that it threatens national prosperity. That some companies have moved to Bizarro World and people who lust after them are Bizarro zombies.
