Actually I think it is a failure of capitalism in that people these days buy the cheapest online and screw over the honest dealers. High streets are now increasingly half empty or worse still occupied by charity shops selling tat and payday loan sharks stolen goods.

I'm sure you didn't mean to imply that online dealers are less honest than brick & mortar dealers.

Having said that, it's the essence of capitalism, that as economic conditions change, those who cannot adopt, fail. Yes it is indeed a harsh concept that hurts many innocents. It is also important that society have a safety net that includes retraining.
