Retail Sales Slow Because Of Sharing Community

Everyone is hoping for growth. The real hopers are the retail outlets who have much debt. But with the phenomenon of "sharing community" who will buy and who will just share or buy second hand?How many families of taxi drivers will spend less because of Uber etc?Why buy a car when you can hail Lyft or Sidecar etc? Want clothes and aren't fussy? Check out Ebay or Craigslist.Commerce will still exist. But how much will be barter? Why buy a home? Share a roof with other renters.Why pay for government its too expensive?Barter and avoid paper trail to taxation.

Genghis Khan Killer App : Sharing Community

Genghis Khan a.k.a. Temujin (1162-1227)together with his Mongol hoard controlled China, Asia and parts of Eastern Europe. He was in the east what the Romans were in the West. He killed like the Romans killed. But the Romans left a culture behind including magnificent architecture.The Great Khan left only carnage. Some was buried. Most rotted. Genghis Khan led a mass of poor. They had nothing . That was an asset. They had nothing to lose. So like locusts they spread and migrated out to neighbors near and far. They took and killed. They were akin to day labor. But they didn't ask for jobs. They just took living day by day.Genghis Khan was the leader of this sharing community.Todays 21st century middle class is under a similar pressure of need to find a living fro day to day as did the Mongol hoard. With the internet as their quasi emperor opportunity are every where. Mandrins like airbnb, Lyft, Alibaba, Uber and others offer platforms to auction excess personal property to anyone for hire/rent.Unlike the Mongols the modern day hoard use money as the medium of exchange. But that could default into a barter if someone could keep score of products for barter.A true cashless society would emerge. Freedom from large parts of government intrusion could be eliminated.
