The Area Between Price and Demand

Society has become extremely good at that.

It destroys value for the consumer, reducing life to a dreary trudge from one hyperoptimized, minimally satisfying, transaction to the next.

Imagine you were in a transactional relationship. That's bad enough, but now imagine that your partner was really good at always negotiating the break so it was just barely enough for you to stay. Every single time. I imagine there are some people who would gradually become increasingly aggravated at the constant borderline exploitation until they destroyed it all. By which I mean divorce; I'm not trying to paint a metaphor here.
