There is no such thing as competition. As soon as a business does something that sets it apart, it's immediately hounded by business school people who want to profit off of lowering standards and raising prices.

It's why everything is so expensive and wages are trash. The whole point of going to business school is to ensure that businesses are always doing the bare minimum while charging the maximum people are willing to pay.

Business school is only a symptom of the problem. I blame genetics! The type of people who hold this view have always, intentionally or not, made it look like the best system. Adopt this approach and those that began it, and their brethren will reward you. Alternately you'll do well anyway because ultimately it's the best way to make money. The problem is it's also the best way to make enemies if the greater balance isn't maintained. How is this genetic? Well I just think it's the way some people are wired. I know there's no doubt that you're environment plays a big roll, but in combination it can be catastrophic. Either way it doesn't seem anyone has recognized this. By that I mean society keeps getting sucked along and the decades of mentioning of anything of this sort, is quashed. When will we wake up? I'd like to add that once you gain more control it is easier the keep the ball rolling.
