>The very idea of free market includes price mechanism based on supply/demand. It means that some company can sell some product for, let say, $250 unless another company comes up with the similar product selling it for $200. At this point, the first company will have to cut prices.
>It is very amusing that I have to explain you these simple things.
So why doesn't it happen? Why doesn't a competitor come up with a product? That the competitor is doing the same with other product is no excuse for the third or fourth one to keep them undisturbed... or are they all in a real socialist solidarity?
Still doesn't explain why don't they boycott the Canadian and EU markets, where the conditions are so unfair and they lose so much profit. Why are they doing that? Playing loss leader with one or two products is one thing, playing that across the board is suicidal, and their stockholders should be told.
