I'm sorry, televisions are incredibly cheap compared to ten years ago. You can buy a 50 inch Smart TV for $250 today.

There are plenty of example of basic items getting more expensive (housing, education, food) and it's because of Capitalism. The defenders of Capitalism say it's "cronyism" but the system is working how it's intended. Privatize and profit off everything, including what should be public goods.

There is no "free market". Everything has rules and guidelines. It's a childish point of view to push for no rules in the market.
