You are an (over sensitive) supporter of Ayn Rand. Her message is about the free market . The motivation about replacing a piece of garbage is presumably about it being a "nice little earner" not about your concern about your fellow Americans being short changed and needing to somehow "set that right". Or are you about to start a period of redeveloping systems for the public good?
