Pea Pods

Why don't we have markets any more in the US? The only markets I ever see are yuppified farmers markets that sell produce for about twice what you pay in the grocery store. In most countries the market is much cheaper than any thing that you buy in a store that has to pay for a building lease, electricity, and employees. How off track are we as a country if it costs more to sell fruits and vegetables in a market with no overhead costs, instead of selling them to a supermarket?
