A lot of times I hear people whining about competition on the eve markets now this brings me to wonder, if eve truly is the end product of world globalization.
The current state of eve basically supports one huuuuge competitive market, Jita.
So this brings me to wonder if in the future of the world all prices will be subject to one super very very volatile market in where prices can never stabilize, because every firm is trying to bully the other firm in order to make profits.
Your thoughts... GO!

what i'm saying is that there comes a point where you can no longer reduce costs and eve- shows this because, you cant outsource, and unless you bully your suppliers to the point of bankrupcy (Wall-Mart) you cant produce a product that is cheaper than other competitors, and why be bullied when you can easily put something on market in eve.
Its also been said that in this century you can no longer compete on cost cutting techniques but only innovation.
Thats the point i'm getting at.

the point of capitalism is that competition as a group makes the market much smarter than anyone can ever be, thus there are no stupid people in capitalism only losers ^^
At any rate, my point is how the world is becoming more centralized, for example the leveling out of wages, right now outsourcing allows for profits to be higher and products to be cheaper what happens when the wages rise in these developing countries, then we get something similar to eve competition.

what seems to be really interesting is i'm beginning to notice a market lag, when prices of building components changes the price of the finished product seems to hover at a loss for about a week or so, and then it begins to catch up with itself.

having less supply doesnt mean there wont be wars waged all the time. In fact with less supply it will create more, of course there will be less expensive ships but I for one believe that too be a good thing, the one thing i've heard thrown around even on EVE TV is there isnt a real reason to take over another region, because they all generally have the same resources.
