That’s your disdain for business speaking again. In many cases, they are INDEED looking for cheaper ways to produce their product so they can charge less to their customer and thereby win sales from their competitors.
But there you are again, separating out business and consumer - with your love only for the consumer. Businesses provide needed services to consumers and also provide them with jobs. In my business, I was able to give five people jobs, and the service I provided was very useful to people. Where’s MY love?
