I think the Internet has hurt our economy and allowed a small part of the population with the know how to make gains from it. Though overall it's a small portion of the total population - how many Googles/Yahoos are there and how plentiful are their jobs - comparing to the industrial age? Also, many industries have been hurt by the Internet as what we once paid we now pay nothing for.

I obviously love the Internet and it's disruptive nature, but do feel it is a small part of the pie that has hurt our economy.
