Somehow, somebody on Digg said something that was not stupid. In a reply to Glenn Beck proving once again he is out of his goddamned mind and making the movie Network all the more prophetic, intrepid Digger nanosec makes a great point:
Here’s an example, if there are 2 car washes, where one charges a nominal fee to get your car washed and the other charges $90,000, which one do you think is going to have a queue? If you remove the cheap one, then you’re going to have people driving around in dirty cars because they cannot afford to have their car washed.
