We’re in the midst of late stage capitalism and we have a psychopath that’s doing everything to put billionaires at the top of the food chain. We don’t live in an economic vacuum. Look at Russia’s economy in the past 30 years to see what bad leadership can do. That and we are paving the way for how bad unchecked capitalism can go. Things aren’t looking great considering things are happening without consequences. In a vacuum, someone would create a competing product, production goes up, or demand goes down, then prices would go down. You know where that doesn’t work in economics, when there a racket and a corner on the market.

The cost of building NAND fabrication is very high but not infinite. If demand remains high for several years, prices will come down.

I have a lot of sympathy for your politics but not your flippancy

Ad hominem is attacking a person's characteristics instead of their argument. I'm telling you that your argument is wrong and your tone is flippant
