Have you ever run a business?

No, but as I understand it, much of the "screw your neighbor" is things like "use low-end materials", "hold features out until the now iPhone release", or even "increase prices in current territory instead of expanding".

All of those, on some level, are affecting the consumer negatively for profit. They all fail in the long term, but are less expensive in the short term, making business easy for the people who can't run a business to save their life.
