It's not always ideal; it falls apart completely with any kind of monopoly, but largely it works as long as the people with the money to spend have the power. That's us, the consumers.

Yes unfortunately everything is driven by money, but thinking that the consumers have the power is naive. Sure when at mass a movement is made a company might tumble, or a government might give in a bit, but in the long run it is the BIG money that rules the world. Less then 1% of the global population.

Just look at what is happening at the moment with energy and food prices. We can complain or move to another energy company or supermarket, it won't change much. Prices are manipulated by creating shortages. (And this is accelerated by the consumers hoarding supplies)
