I'll sell you one for $70. Capitalism must breed competition.

I’ll sell you one for $69.69.

The way their capitalism was supposed to work, where consumers end up benefitting from cheaper goods at better quality, Nd the best quality for a reasonable price. Instead, we now have crazy shit like oat milk costing $7 for a half gallon. Every single brand. Why would water and oats, two very cheap items, ever come out to $7 retail? Because these companies are all artificially keeping their prices high, together.

Crony capitalism. Same goes for airlines, any government contractor, ISPs, etc. We live in a post-capitalist society. And we are now under the thumb of tyrant capitalism.
