I'd love to see logistics shorn off from point of sale.

I think there'd be a lot of room for innovation if you turned Amazon/Walmart/Home Depot's logistics into their own companies, then allowed people to put whatever between that and the customer that they wanted to.

Which is essentially what Amazon does now... the only difference is they get to control that link and the revenue flow from it.

Segregating market functions forevermore would go a long way towards returning competition to marketplaces, imho. (E.g. logistics|retail, advertising|everything, etc.)
