This gets at the issue I see developing sine the 1980s. Pre-1980 much a of small town's economy was dominated by local businesses. Currently I see more money leaving the local economy via subscription. Most historic economic measures aren't that old and economies are not really stagnant. This all compounds into a less generalized economy.
