    Makes me wish producers were in the game to sell good products rather than to sell as much as they can of anything they think will make a profit.

      Yeah, people forget the point of capitalism isn’t to satisfy the consumer. It’s to maximize returns to the current owners.

      If they can do that with good products, they will. If they can make more money with a shitty product, the that’s what’s on the menu
