This is backwards. More of humanity is empowered to go into business and compete today than ever in history. There are forces that level the playing field: Open source; Utility-Grade Internet services (where Google and Amazon compete head-to-head); cheap, ubiquitous connected computers; billions of Internet-connected customers...
