[extropy-chat] Futurist priorities was ex-tropical

[Kevin Freels]

I don;t think markets choose the best product or price. . There's plenty of
cheap products that don;t sell very well simply because they are crap. It's
not about value either since many times, the value is in a more expensive
product that lasts longer, yet it is the cheaper one that wins. I think it
can be said that the market will choose the cheapest product that
accomplishes the same goal.
