A bit of subject....but
Why does everyone say we "save" with globalization? I
remember the days when I for the life of me could not wear out
a pair of jeans. Today the material is so thin that wearing out
cloths yes even jeans is a matter of a few months to socks where
the wear out is a few weeks. So in the initial purchase I might
save a few bucks but since I am purchasing again and again and
again the so called savings is simply NOT there in fact it costs
far more. And when you add the extra time and costs in terms
of gas to travel back and forth to the stores it only gets wors
still.

WHERE IS THE SAVINGS!?!
