If they keep going through a cyclical price system, the consumers would have no incentive to stay with them, so when another company did come into the area the consumers would switch

2019-11-02 21:47:20 UTC  

@DrRisen that's short term

2019-11-02 21:47:29 UTC  

Long term, it would be a good investment for the incoming company

2019-11-02 21:47:39 UTC  

Especially if they're already established

2019-11-02 21:48:25 UTC  

@Orson Krennic Switching takes time, especially if the initial company had an exclusivity clause in place.

2019-11-02 21:48:45 UTC  

Time that the startup doesn’t have.

2019-11-02 21:48:50 UTC  

Companies change prices all the time without losing public support

2019-11-02 21:49:02 UTC  

It’s a stamina game, and the home field team will always have more of it.

2019-11-02 21:49:15 UTC  

Again, it's a long term good investment

2019-11-02 21:49:36 UTC  

Short term, the costs are expensive

2019-11-02 21:49:41 UTC  

Long term, it's a good investment

2019-11-02 21:49:53 UTC  

Especially because of the demand for cheaper prices

2019-11-02 21:50:00 UTC  

If you’re a startup, you can’t afford long term because you have bills and loans to pay *now*.

2019-11-02 21:50:10 UTC  

That's not what I've been saying

2019-11-02 21:50:35 UTC  

I explicitly said what would be probable is for an existing company to move into the area and expand their business

2019-11-02 21:51:09 UTC  

Which doesn’t solve the problem of stifling new growth.

2019-11-02 21:51:30 UTC  

It’s just another big tree taking up even more of the forest.

2019-11-02 21:52:00 UTC  

If the other company offers lower prices then it would solve the problem you detailed

2019-11-02 21:52:05 UTC  

And eventually these trees merge or go bankrupt making it even more centralized

2019-11-02 21:52:13 UTC  

But often times, companies don't do this

2019-11-02 21:52:22 UTC  

So it's not a realistic scenario

2019-11-02 21:54:49 UTC  

@Orson Krennic And that breaches the problems of corporate conspiracy, in the sense of conspiracy meaning conspiring and cooperating together.

2019-11-02 21:55:21 UTC  

I can’t think of the proper word for it in financial terminology, though there probably is one.

2019-11-02 21:56:10 UTC  

@Orson Krennic Collusion, that’s the word.
