It's because it's all fake and designed to make you think you have a chance and that things are decided fairly. Your TV isn't cheap because it's subsidized by ads from whatever media company. It's cheap because the media keeping you in line is the most cost effective tool they can come up with. Prices are determined by how much you're pacified by the product rather than "market forces".
