One of Billion examples demonstrating the absurdity of the capitalist system

[pvsi]

Do not confuse me with a socialist. I bought an invisible fence system for my dogs a few years ago from innotek for about $300+. works great. lost one collar. now another company bought that company and I can no longer get a replacement collar, because the "frequency is different" need to buy a whole system for $300+, new transmitter etc. clearly all total BS excuses to get me to buy their new exactly same product, not improved in any way. being not a rich man I hesitate, endangering my own animals, switching between collars. And so do A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE. in a normal system things are made to last.

What's even worse about this system is that it forces it's will of crap culture upon other nations.

That not capitalism. That is bad business, but since it's legal under current government laws, expect that sort of inconvenience. Choose another company now if you can and go online and leave feedback for the current business. Customer service isn't what it used to be. I hate that so many companies produce crap, but they make it because people buy it. If people would take time to do their homework and not buy from people with poor customer service and low quality products, the rotten companies would disappear.

The reason companies are wealthy is because we make them that way. It takes one person or small group to come up with a product and plan to get rich quick. It takes millions to help anyone realize that dream.

I keep researching, seems "petsafe" is the only company that makes something like this, but it was innotek, and they bough them out. I am surprised there are not more companies making this thing, I definitely do NOT want to buy it from petsafe for the reason you stated.
