Has the cost of Hi-Fi gotten a bit too much ?
Yes less than butter and less than the stupidity of politicians around Occidental world in general...
How is it?
When someone paint himself in a corner you have it....
----By the way there is NO universal conspiracy...
One of the law of stupidity is that «Stupid people are those
whose efforts are counterproductive to both their and others’ interests »
----But there exist many colliding conspiracacies...
because there is another law of stupidity that define «Bandits being those who
pursue their own self-interest even when doing so poses a net detriment to societal welfare» Then to themselves too in the long run...

----- the two other categories of people are for Carlo Cipola:
«Helpless people or well intentioned one, who
contribute to society but are taken advantage of by it (and especially by the "bandit" sector of it); note, however, that extreme altruists and pacifists may willingly and consciously (rather than helplessly) accept a place in this category for moral or ethical reasons»
And:
«Intelligent people
contribute to society and who leverage their contributions into reciprocal benefits»
The book of Cipolla is the best about stupidity....50 pages...Free to read....
😁😊
I will add some intelligent " bandits" become stupid by themselves with time because their goal makes them blinds to others goal, and at the end make them "stupid" in spite of their apparently working brain... This is the case of political leaders in declining civilization and political empires... They paint themselves in a corner BECAUSE of the way their intelligence focus ONLY on their short term interest...
