Against my better judgement I will reply to this. At first I was hoping you were being sarcastic but I am not so sure. the amount of computing power available to anyone this day and age is astonishing and what keeps Intel's pricing in line is the competition from all the other manufacturers. If anything there is such an abundance of power that many fail to understand just how much can be done at lower levels instead of assuming having the most is the best solution

Problem that Intel's pricing is dictated by the capitalist greed and has nothing to do with the provided value. Nationalisation would ensure that the pricing is fair and everyone has equal access. For example I cannot afford Intel Xeon CPU but it would help me in my research. Meanwhile big corporation can buy Xeons by tonnes. How can I compete with that? I am questioning whether living in this society makes any sense. At the moment I feel like being a slave. Our only hope is communism!
