The Washington Post makes this startling realization:
Auto manufacturers have long been moving toward making SUVs more car-like. They weren't doing it for safety. They were doing it for money, in direct response to growing consumer demand for trucks that behaved more like cars.I'm just shocked, I say, shocked. I had no idea that corporations would be so brazen in their attempt to enrich their shareholders, rather than hemorrhaging money for the good of the public.

How can the automakers (as well as other businesses) possibly justify making items that their customers want? I just don't understand!
