"Sales... have changed.

It's no longer about brands, series, or prices. It's an endless series of proxy discounts, done by workers and sites.

Purchasing--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-oiled machine.

Sales has changed.

ID-tagged salesmen carry ID-tagged badges, use ID-tagged gear. Money inside their wallets enhance and regulate their abilities.

Product control, information control, stock control, shelf space control... everything is monitored and kept under control.

Sales... have changed.

The age of physical stores has become the age of Amazon, all in the name of averting catastrophe from cases of mass bankrupcy, and he who controls the sales, controls history.

Sales... have changed.

When the internet is under total control, low prices becomes routine."

-Old Snake, 2014.

Yeah, check the game. That speech is right there. Metal Gear Solid 4 foresaw this whole plot.
