This weekend we’ve had the Masters golf tournament, pitting golf’s best in competition for the coveted green jacket.
For many, dates on the calendar revolve around sports season competition deemed “good” by our society.
America’s economy is consumer-driven. On the whole, our televisions, radios, mobile devices and social media sites churn with commercials advertising the features, advantages and benefits of one product or service in contrast to another. The consumer chooses that which best meets their personal needs and desires.
So there’s an open competition for your dollars. This competition creates the supply and demand of free-market economics and produces costs that allow this balance.
