But I thought the blessed capitalist optimization was all about providing the best possible product at the lowest possible price, so why do we pay the full price for the shittiest product possible for which the customers are still willing to pay?
Best possible, yes; but you're defining it wrong. The best possible product is always the thing that makes the thing that makes the most profit. The ideal is to generate massive profit for zero cost. And if the company has the sense to corner the market and create an irreplaceable product, the will of the consumer ceases to matter.
You really do love your magnificent corporations, praising them for their infinite wits selling you lowest quality bullshit for the benefit of not you at all.
It will always bring joy to my heart seeing a common men awe for their corporate overlords for the most altruistic reasons, because how else should I call it? You don't get nothing from their greed, and yet you clearly enjoy seeing how they operate.
