It's your baseless assumption that people are unwilling to pay money for these services.
- drivebycomment 5y agoIt's not whether there are people who are willing to pay, but whether there are enough such people so that mandating this would not lead to substantially less number of services provided by companies such that society collectively will be worse off. I.e. a regulation like this proposal will raise the cost of business which ultimately consumers have to bear, and the question is how much cost it will increase overall and if the consequence of that increase is actually acceptable for the society. I don't know anybody knows the answer for sure - it's possible the cost increase is marginal and can be easily absorbed, but maybe not.

As a prime example look up peoples common complaints about airlines and then ask them why they don’t just fly first or business class, in most cases a cheaper price is favorable to most of the people complaining about airlines. I have a feeling that whatever services this guy is complaining about that a company offers a product that is much higher priced that includes knowledgeable and helpful support that they have simply chosen not to buy.
