A good reason to explore charter cities that are open to massive influxes of capital and labor.

The obvious question, rather than a reflection on the last several decades of global tidal workforce ebbs and flows, what happens as local and global labor markets continue to find eventual consistency (in equilibrium) even as those markets only appear distant? I love to say, the world is “increasingly small”. Are we a zombie, or ghost, or something else?

What is wrong with falling prices? Didn't that happen in the "forgotten depression" of 1920?

The existence/growth of ghost regions (say, in the US) creates the illusion that "there's still plenty of room here."

Maybe NOT so "plenty."

Or, when is "room" not "room"?
