"In the end, Lynn's apprehension about the changing economy is understandable. His remarks suggest a worldview based on power struggles between oppressors and oppressed -- capital vs. labor, Wal-Mart vs. mom-and-pop stores, and such. New technologies like the Internet undermine this paradigm by diffusing power. This is great news for society at large, encouraging greater cooperation as more people are able to engage in the market in different ways. But for the society-as-power-struggle crowd, it may mean that everything they know is wrong -- and who wouldn't want to deny that?"
