The answer to most of your questions is ..its the consumers fault . 98%
of consumers want everything for a low price so all the manufacturers
cut every corner they could to lower the prices resulting in low quality
and poor service .

That's the retailer's fault. They never show you a good reason to spend
more than the minimum, and when they do try you get the impression that
they are motivated by a bonus and not a desire to help you.

Not always true. There are lots of quality dealers out there that
understand the differences between price and value, and between selection
and choice. The consumer demanding more for less, combined with the trend
in retailing toward box-moving effiencies at the expense of value added and
intelligent decision making are BOTH at fault. When consumers demand more,
they generally get it. The success of specialty retailers and custom
installation and integration services is evidence of this. The retail and
service industries in general lack creativity, knowledge, and vision, and
the result is the lowest common denominator. There are notable exceptions,
though they have to be sought out beyond the laundry lists disguised as full
color adds in the Sunday paper.
