In the land of rainbows and unicorns your ideals exit. In reality the market will try to sell you the cheapest piece of crap with a higher profit margin than not.

Examples?
Ford Pinto
Chevy Vega
Pontiac Aztek
John Deere lawnmowers sold by Big Box stores
“Homeowner” grade chainsaws sold under brand name
Anything sold at Harbor Freight (yeah, its chicom but no one who shops there cares)

The free market also exists in the same rainbow and unicorn land.

I know some companies, and people, sell garbage.
Some people have pride and decency still.

That’s one big downside to the lockdowns, even less “one off” businesses.
I always try to support the Mom and Pop stores.
