I provided numerous reasons why I don’t think I’ve been overcharged.
I really don’t understand what your point is. What do you mean by “overcharged”?
If companies make billions in profit and company owners can spend in a day more than you’ll make in a lifetime without batting an eye that’s because people like you, me and the vast majority of humans on this planet are paying more than things are truly worth.
We might not feel like we’re paying too much for stuff, but in reality if the person at the top has billions to their name, that money comes from somewhere, we’ve just been convinced by them that that’s the cost of things and that’s it.
The truth is the 2$ game that you bought would have been 1$ in a system where there isn’t a billionaire at the top. The 40$ game that you bought would have been 20$ and AAA games would cost 35$. The only reason they cost double their value is because a bunch of guys rake in millions or billions a year, they artificially increase the price everything needs to be sold for in order for companies to be able to pay them.
Your see the exact same thing happening at the grocery store, people doing the work can’t afford the food they’re selling while the big boss owns a house on every continent, take them out of the equation and suddenly everything can be sold for much cheaper because that’s billions the company doesn’t need to generate every year.
So your definition of overcharged is that we’re being charged more than what we would in an alternate reality where billionaires don’t exist?
I don’t think imagination is a good basis of comparison. If one store is selling the game for $20 and another is selling it for $70 with nothing different between the two, then the one selling it for $70 is overcharging.
But if one real store is selling it for $70, and an imaginary store is selling it for $20, then I don’t think the real store is overcharging…lol
My definition of overcharged is that if someone is able to become a multimillionaire or billionaire from people purchasing their product then their product is sold for more than it’s worth, it’s not real world vs imaginary world, it’s rich people taking advantage of us in the real world and let me guarantee you one thing buddy, you’re not rich enough to be in a position where you should defend that system, you should be angry that you have less than you deserve in your pockets while Gabe and his friends are partying on a yacht.

Funny how your first phrase makes it seem like you understand exactly what I’m talking about but because we’re talking about a product that you like critical thinking goes out the window.
