In her essay, “In Praise of Chain Stores”, Virginia Postrel hails the progressiveness of chain stores and counters arguments made against them. As a frequent shopper in my city, I have experienced the benefits of chain stores and how they affect the locals that shop in them. I believe that chain stores have not turned Augusta into a boring city because they are familiar even to those new to the area, they have a high standard of quality and service, and provide fair fixed prices. First, Postrel quotes Thomas Friedman in her essay, stating that “…America is mind numbingly monotonous- the most boring country to tour; because ‘everywhere looks like everwhere else…’ the familiarity of a Walmart to someone new to Augusta may be a relief,
After reviewing all cost and profit amounts in question 1-5, Tom did not make a good economic decision in starting his own turnip farm. As the case did not specify how much Tom will be earning a year managing Turnip Tom’s, according to the income statement, Tom’s revenue at the organic farm is $3,000 more than his computer programmer salary at $95,000.
