The Monster.com Effect

In cleaning out a mailbox I found an old link from Darin about the monster.com effect, John Robb’s supposition that increased information flow will allow informed consumers to keep prices down through competition while the same allows them to keep wage growth strong, leading to a shift where corporations make less via profits and individuals get more actual wealth. I’m not sure I buy it but I actually would like it if his scenario plays out this way.
