Two paths: Foxconn or Apple

Seth Godin gets it: The Internet revolution changes everything.

The Internet forces nations to choose one of two paths--the Foxconn model or the Apple model.

The Foxconn model says: focus on using the Internet and the digital revolution to manufacture commodities as cheaply as possible and race to the bottom.

The Apple model says: focus on using the Internet and the digital revolution to reinvent the world and race to the top.

What will we choose? Foxconn or Apple? It doesn't appear that we can choose both.
