This Time, Lemonade Sits
This afternoon I realized the inevitable: lemonade stands just aren’t effective anymore. Now, I understand that “anymore” is a confusing term. I could be noting that lemonade stands were effective up until this morning, or I could be noting that they haven’t been effective since the invention of refrigeration. But none of that matters.

The gains we get from increased productivity come to us in two main ways: higher wages, or less expensive products. Let's take a look at one product that costs less and delivers more value because of higher productivity:When I grew up in the 1950s, everyone in the neighborhood took notice when a new television set arrived. The cost of a set represented a big portion of a family's income.And then there was upkeep. In those days, we could count on our TV sets to make a funny noise and go black just before the car chase came to a climax, just before the big wedding on a soap opera, or just before the championship game. So we called a TV repairman, who came to the house, replaced a tube
