#2 Actually, who wants to go in on this? The future of high end retailing will be to fly well heeled shoppers to exclusive "shopping enclaves" remote from public access. They can paw over the merchandise as they desire, no need to mix with the hoi polloi. The stores can be absurdly lavish as they don't have local regulations and taxes to deal with. If the retailers play it right, they can own their own shopping municipality and have whatever rules they want.

Coming soon.

#4 Dump your shares in companies that sell pane glass windows! The next architectural trend will bill blank exterior walls , portcullises and armored gates .... very medieval.

All they need to be a prison is a fence.
