Sounds neato, but what you also miss is customer service and a human being you can visit and hold accountable. You don't get that on the net.

And what about the subsidiary local businesses that sell to and also depend on that local business in question for their incomes?
tough shite...shouldn't have put all your eggs in one basked

How about the local jobs? Where do they go?
they go where the money goes

How about the local government that lost all of that revenue from business and individual alike locally?
government provides services...it's not in the business of making money
The internet is a tool, just like a truck or a hammer or anything else. If someone creates a website and starts selling toilet paper cheaper than the local guy, oh well. He took a risk in creating the website, whether it be his time to design, test, and run the site or the money it cost him to pay someone to do those things. If the site doesn't work, he's out that time and money, not the local grocery store isn't so saying there is not risk involved is plain wrong.
If there were two farms and one could afford a delivery truck and one couldn't, would you say that one had an unfair advantage over the other? Hell no!!! The one with the truck may have an advantage in that he can deliver his goods to customers and the other guy has to have customers come to him, but it certainly isn't unfair. No one is stopping the other farmer from getting a truck and delivering his stuff too.
No one is stopping Ford or Chevy from selling cars online, they're just too invested in an antiquated business model to give up on it. Same thing happened to Blockbuster and I bet you weren't complaining when they filed for bankruptcy.
Times are a chaining pops and no one is forcing you to change but don't bitch when you wake up one day and the world has left you in the past.

You're ignorant Batman, and you deserve what you get in your local community too, every bit of it.
Your local poverty is what you have to show for it too, driven purely by selfish greed devoid of principle one, and while that may serve YOU personally right this second, long term it fricks you and where you live, and everyone you know. It's for that reason, you, that there has to be regulation of some sort so we don't ALL go off the rails of the crazy train, because left to your own devises, you'd have us all working on the corporate farm, and were well on our way already toward that end.

not when you've killed it already, and made it solely about high volume and low profit. You've taken that right out of the equation, especially when it takes an incredible arse load of money or even think bout competing. We do this still today, and you wonder where the frick customer service has gone. Well shite, you told them it wasn't important compared to how low you can go. You're the driving force behind that. We all are individually, and why this country and freedom, liberty, the market, everything hinges on one thing to remain viable and healthy... Your good decisions and principles. Without it, it's all a wash. Take a look at your country right now. That's the effect of everyone looking out only for themselves, and shite, we pass the cost down to our own children. How much immoral can you get? That's why it all takes principles instead of quick personal pay days. You have to know better first though. If you know better and still do it, then the blood is worse.

and the internet certainly doesn't hurt accountability. If anything, it makes customer service even more important for local businesses driving up quality

so providing products/services that enhance peoples' lives is bad long term?
