They don't survive as is, but they can morph into other things. As more
and commodity buying happens over the Internet, there's more room for
invention with enterprises that aren't commodity based. Consider just
the possibilities with entertainment and education, not to mention that
distributed manufacturing is still happening somewhere, and that could
be right in our own countries if tariffs and taxes are handled right (a
*gradual* move in the direction of a free world-economy), and that would
boost prosperity in rural areas and gives people who want to live in the
country the chance to.

Why don't we have parks all over the place - within distance that we can
walk to? Why no amphitheatres,  so ubiquitous in ancient Greece, but
completely unavailable to us now? What happened to casual
meeting/milling places? 

Why can't some re-born commodities businesses big on building and
maintain a park in your part of  town? What about an amphitheatre
company instead of a furniture store? If it takes an acre instead of a
small building, that's good - use up that space provided by people
moving into the country :)
