Moreover, this will come out of peoples disposable income - internet fees, higher state and local taxes, gas prices and the multiply high gas has on all goods and serves, paid sites on the net, cable TV, mobile phones and all its extras, and the price of live - there is a limit what consumers are willing to pay extra for and how much for. The economy is very strong, perhaps the strongest ever, but there is a limit on disposable income and I do not think there has ever been a market like there is now where all the different place that are competing for these finite disposable dollars.
