Reply To Gary North

- James Howard Kunstler -

In the early 60's, I watched Safeway put several small grocery stores and one meat market out of business. Uh, er, no. Chain stores were far more efficient and it was that efficiency that was more competitive and therefore survived and prospered. The slaughterhouse went away because centrally located meat packing plants were more efficient.

Claiming that employees are underpaid is a typical line of unionesque B.S. Why should the purchaser pay more for wages than is necessary? Yes bubba, the end consumer foots ALL the bills including taxes for the over-paid employees. What do these clerks and shelf-stockers produce anyway?

Hell, let's just enact a law making minimum wage $20USD/hour with 4 hour days. That way we have fuller employment and a tax revenue stream.

The typical consumer is a highly specialized curious non-producer. They have minimal capacity for job flexibility and have a grossly inflated idea of their true worth to an employer. Kind of like the author of this article. The average consumer can't make the simple decision to avoid crippling debt. Ergo, their wage is below some standard of living. Bubba, expenses grow to meet and surpass all forms of income. That is the way of first-worlders.

Gary North might have a drubbing coming, but not on this issue. The consumer chose so it is time for you to shut up. Or are you suggesting we make a law to force people to buy from inefficient markets in order to support inefficient businessmen and their inefficient employees? But of course this will enhance the tax revenue stream making vote buying of the least efficient members of society.

Those who can - do. Those who can't - teach.

Gary North was inflamed because I had put out a recent blog inveighing against the chain-store rape of local economies from sea to shining sea. North wrote:Consider his [JHK's] most recent screed. It begins with an attack on the most successful free market retailing operation o... Lire la suite
