"The market only pays for what the market wants to buy."

This is a typical wrong free market argument. You can create demand, it is a known mechanism in capitalism.

Being able to create demand and market only paying for what the market wants to buy are not mutually exclusive. One can create demand for a product through marketing and people are still buying what they want.
This article seems to advance a lot of free market arguments (innovate, differentiate yourself, scarcity, problem solving...)
