In business to make money??? Of course or why do you think they'd invest so much of their future and finances and liability? Profit is NOT a dirty word, it's a must or the business will fail! There are smart ways and dumb ways to make a profit. Even some underhanded and/or illegal ways too. It's up to the individual consumer to be wise and get the best real bang for their buck! Overpriced IS overpriced and the best way to really kill it and further prevent it is by boycotting and not feeding the varmit your dollars. It will eventually or quickly die under it's own weight and issues. Thus, problem solved!
This is coming from owning a many decade long very successful business and being truely competitive and fair. No get rich quick scheme at all, just doing it the proper way that used to be called "The American Free Market Way"! It's the cuustomer that really counts and you always strive to have that same customer and all customers constantly return which tells volumes!
I agree 100%. My main point was/is offer a great service at a fair price. Find a nitch of customers that value what you offer. And business 101, don't get caught up in a race to the bottom trying to cater to folks who want everything for "free". All of which I am sure you and old western know well
