CSList freedom

2000-11-05 Thread Terry Wayne
Listers,
I have been a little disturbed by the responses to Ted
Windsor concerning his product.

 jumpin' christ... you just HAVE to love somebody
with the big swinging brass ones to try and gouge out
$75 for a quart or so of energised water that they
spent thousand of dollars on the equiptment to
develop. and this on the authority of (they) heard 
of a fish that didn't suffocate.  what more ringing
endorsement could any reasonable being possible want?
please take my millions of dollars and do with it what
you will and evidence be damned. you are really
drunvalo melchizidek in another inicarnation aren't 
you? i'd bet yer at least friends.

The above paragraph communicates several ideas which I
find offensive to be expressed on this list. 

One, Ted doesn't have any choice about revealing the
details of the production of his product. If he
chooses to keep these details to himself, he is a
villain.

Two, he must be careful to not charge too much, or he
will also be a villain (maybe each of us should submit
our prices to this list for the approval of those who
feel they know what we should charge).

Three, he must also submit all the details of how he
became convinced of the efficacy of his product to
these same guardians who will tell us if we've made a
mistake.

Actually, the tone of the paragraph at the top and the
others that preceded it sounds identical to what I've
repeatedly heard from representatives of the AMA.

Ted shouldn't have to run some kind of gauntlet or
pass some screening process before he can participate
in this list, nor should he (or anyone else) have to
fear being blasted with vituperative sarcasm for his
views.

We will never be able to conduct any objective,
intelligent discussions with those of the AMA
persuasion (which we need to do) if all they're going
to get is recrimination. Isn't that what we complain
about getting from them?

A primary principle of free enterprise is that we can
charge what ever we want - if it's too much, we will
make no sales (provided there is competition). To be
condemned for our pricing is silly - the market will
take care of that.

Terry: I just wanted you to know that I support your views. Living in a 
capitalist culture ain't easy for many of us. If there's a better system, I'd 
like to hear about it (off list, of course). The profit motive should be 
respected not mocked. Thanks. Roger

Yes,
Isn't that a fascinating attribute of human nature?
And it happens so very often that it is predictable!
