I wrote a blog back in Feb 2012 just after the Super Bowl on how competition causes businesses to try new ways to attract customers by lowering prices, improving quality and developing new products and services.

Although the former first lady spoke these words more than a century ago, they’re still very true today.  And for those who can’t attend school in person, the possibilities have been extremely limited.

Sixth grader, Cristian, attends class at Splendora Junior High School in Texas using VGo.  This gives “him” freedom to attend class, walk the halls, and even go to the cafeteria with all the other kids. To his classmates, and to Cristian, it’s as if he is really there, despite the fact that he is undergoing another round of chemotherapy.

It’s driven the success of our economy. However, if entrepreneurs, working within the rules and boundaries of those regulations, are prevented from being in the market by others who take advantage of the system - it makes for less competition, inevitably leads to higher prices, results in poorer quality, and offers fewer new products and services.
