Oh great...here we go again.

Is this not happening already? In the Midlands, there is company firm called HCB Solicitors that go around buying 'moribund' high street firms.

I would be interested to see how he defines a 'moribund market'- in terminal decline perhaps? at the point of death perhaps? lacking vitality?

"...a people relationship business..." aka a numbers game- stack 'em high sell 'em cheap.

Interesting use of the word 'people' as that is exactly what this type of enterprise is trying to eradicate- people. The more we all sit behind computers the better.

Now if we could only get rid of the human interaction altogether.....any ideas?
