Wall Street Cars

I don't see how it's wall streets fault that americans can't afford the cars. The manufactures are making vehicles based on 'what people want'

Along with gov policies which drive development of vehicles. This has pushed pricing higher and higher. lets be real a lot of people don't need a full size f150 with all the bells and whistles.

If more people pushed for afforadable sedans the avg car size and price may be cheaper.

"What people want" is more. That's what everyone wants, all the time. It is hard wired into our lizard brains to want more.

Above that we have norms that regulate our behavior with rules and a rational mind that challenges the lizard brain and the rules.

If Wall Street were only reacting to the market, there may be no problem. I say "may" because I haven't considered it much. My career was helping Wall Street manipulate people. Wall Street does not take a hands-off approach to consumer demand.

I was an avarice engineer. I used machine learning to put the right stimulus in front of a vulnerable person at their weakest moment to get them to spend money.

Wall Street has also invested heavily in a corrupt political system to steadily reduce the friction (taxes) on cashflow to the wealthiest. Reducing friction on one channel in a system increases flow down that channel relative to the others. IE: Wall Street actively reduces compensation to the consumers of its goods.
