say, the internet, are nothing compared to the changes
We are still in the initial stages of the internet. We're still in the first 10 years of the Internet's history and look at the change it has brought. Wait another 10 years, I bet you'll change your mind.
as for globalization, it was in the 1800s america was sending gunboats to open up japan etc.
Oh wow, gunboats. Tell me, how many American products or franchises were in Japan 100 years ago, or even 50?
