The market is filled with products people hate.

Explain to me again how free markets and competition are supposed to work?

Well you see, when a capitalist and a politician love ~~eachother~~ money very much, they engage in an act of ~~love~~ collusion. This gets both of them very much money. So much in fact, that they couldn't possibly hold on to all of it. And the money that falls out of their pocket trickles down to every one! Thus, products are improved, and everyone gets their needs met!

This is the free market in action, and anyone who disagrees is a dirty Commie!
