The Close Approach of the
Markets
Current opportunities for shopping are
now incomparably more advanced than they
were in the past. Even villages and small
towns have supermarkets and shopping centers
in which people can shop at will. In addition,
improved methods of transportation allow
them to shop in previously inaccessible
places.
The Internet has opened up even more opportunities
for shopping. While sitting at home, people
can buy whatever they want from anyplace
in the world. Looked at in these terms,
it is as if the markets were actually in
peoples' homes.
