Oh, "The Economist"...how will I ever live without your sweeping and useless generalizations?

It's really unfortunate that snarky first comments are starting to pop up on so many stories.

Did the article generalize? Sure. But at least the generalizations were entertaining, somewhat thoughtful, and nominally about startups.

Meanwhile, what do these complaints contribute? If you don't like it, don't vote for it. There's a whole page of new submissions that never seem to get viewed. Put some energy there.

The upvotes on my comment indicate that there was some value, perhaps on par with the entertainment provided by the article. The upmods for comments serve as feedback to the article submitter helping them to adjust their future submissions.

just remember. In the long scheme of history corporations aren't that old. None of 'modern society' is.

Perhaps markets are.
