People still do want to be connected to trade, travel and transact across the world, but in government policy, where economic logic once trumped politics, today it’s often the reverse. The cumulative result of all these measures, protecting local industries, subsidizing national champions, restricting immigration, is always to sap economic growth.'”

Excerpt from Forbes -- "Says Anindya Ghose, Heinz Riehl Chair professor of business at NYU and director of the NYU Stern master of science in business analytics program, 'My sense is that this decision by Bose to close to many offline stores is dictated by cost economics.
