    • I have a product that I want to sell.
    • You don’t like that product.
    • I’m at risk of being broke because I don’t sell anything.
    • It’s YOUR FAULT because you don’t buy what I sell.

    I think that’s not the way it works.

      I think that’s not the way it works.

      The fact that you don’t see a difference between you as an individual consumer buying a product and we as a society voting together to steer our collective course is a very serious problem.

      If 70% of the people buy the product they don’t like, another worse company goes bankrupt.

      But if 50% of people buy the product they don’t like, the two biggest companies kill everyone.

      Why don’t you share the way you do think it works?

      Unless you don’t know anymore of “how it should work” than the people running the show, despite your wish to appear as you do.

      It’s cute 😺

        Did you give this a moment’s thought before replying?

        He’s saying that they’re not offering a product people like.

        You’re asking what the alternative is.

        The alternative is offering a product people DO like. Inferring that from the comment you replied to is common sense.
