I think we are going to see in every business the application of the auction mechanism to bring down the prices offered by suppliers, but it will broaden the pool of suppliers. And in niche areas, as everyone finds his pathway to offer the niche service, those who are particularly efficient and can engage in the auction world will find that they are now successful. It adds volatility because new entrants can come at any time. To me, a marvel of regional economic integration has been north Italy with its many small family firms involved in leather products, high technology steel, and with very high quality, often very high level, design. The relationships determine how each of these entities responds to the others changes.
People talk a lot.
One family knows another family and trust is built. That north Italian model will be replicated on the network. The part that is missing today is the part that makes it work in north Italy. That is the bonds of trust. If I have done business with your family for 100 years and I am in a difficult financial situation for a moment, you will help me because we are a web of interrelated interests.
