The Living Poem to Capitalism

Thursday, June 2nd, 2005

Radley Balko describes Wegmans, the upscale grocery store, as The Living Poem to Capitalism:

So what is it about Wegmans that’s so appealing?

Start with the assault on the senses that is its “Market Café.” Open entering, you’ll feel a little as if you’ve stumbled into an open-air European market. Commerce bustles all around you. It has all the fresh goods, delightful smells, and vivacious colors of an ageless community market, but at a variety and depth only modern advances in technology, agriculture, and shipping can provide. The place is a living poem to capitalism.
