BELIEVE IT OR NOT, there is actually a website, and a business behind it, called www dot shaveclub dot com, or some such. I first heard about it on radio, i can't remember what type of station, classic rock, talk, or whatever.
But they have a website, and advertise on radio, so i thought it was interesting, worth looking into, or, short of that, worthy of consideration and comment. Truth is, I'm just too damned lazy to do any reasearch, like visiting the website, before writing this article. Call me crazy, i'd rather speculate in ignorance, then later see how close i was....lol...
what amazes me is the variety of business enterprise which manifests in america. I'm just guessing that a potential customer gets in touch with shave club dot com, via internet, or phone, and is talked into ordering perfectly manufactured razorblades and razors, which are paid for electronically online, and shipped through the U.S. mail. Am i close?
Again, what an incredible variety of businesses we have in america! goods and services of all sorts, from dog walking companies, to baby sitting, sign painting, food delivery...the american economy has become a consumer service economy, where services are rendered, such as dog walking and razor blade delivery, rather than a grass roots manufacturing economy, where things are actually made.
Doesn't it seem interesting that in a country, (the united states) wherein damned near everyone has a television set, no television sets are manufactured, in a country in which millions of people own and ride motorcycles, there is only one motorcycle company....
what about shoes, and clothing? Do we make any in america anymore? Washers? Dryers? Computers?? No, but, by god, we will walk your dog for you, or manage our money, or represent you legally for a modest retainer...has america become a nation of paper shufflers and petty service providers?
as long as we keep making some food, clothing, and shelter, just to be on the safe side..if you want to be wealthy, you must manufacture your own wealth, correct?
