For many years, many of our laws have been made to serve the lobbyist with the most money, not to serve the people. A good example of this is copyright laws and how willing politicians have been to condemn people that share music over the internet. Normal people, and usually even the musicians that write and perform the music, generally don't care about music being shared - but because it will hurt the profits of huge companies that have lots of money to spend, it is suddenly a national priority.
Many have been tricked into the notion that because music is expensive it is more valuable. This isn't exactly the case.
