I would be flying all over the place but I look at the price of a ticket and its 350 bucks or over a grand to fly my family anywhere. Think about how much cheaper aluminum and steel and oil (plastics) are to make a vehicle yet the price of a car hasn't come down and won't come down. I could go on and on but who's listening really.
Another good example of companies not caring about their customers is Country Mark. The gas company. They drill all their oil right here in America. Yet they are just as expensive as anyone else. They take $1 from the sale of every gallon of lubricant and $0.50 a gallon of every gallon of fuel sold and donate it to charities that only use about 10% of do attains for actual causes anyways. You know how much the price of fuel would be if they alone gave those savings to their customers!? Who ever makes the product is who makes the most money. And you won't get any part of it unless you scrounge for scraps. Or start a non-profit and keep $900,000 for every Million as "operating costs".
