Wait a minute, now just wait ONE minute. You mean, independent contractors are allowed to quote individual prices for individual jobs rather than a one-size fits all quote? That a customer has the freedom to open his mouth and negotiate price? Does the socialist state govt know about this? Seems the govt certainly wants to curtail free speech. Is capitalism and the free market next?

Perhaps you've never been a contractor, a salesman, a marketeer. The methodology you describe would seem to fit a lot of jobs. But perhaps you're just used to paying MSRP? Half the fun of shopping in world bazaars is sitting down, having a glass of chi, and
discussing price.
But, being a nice guy, I am willing to sell a pair of those
special glasses that allow you to see the bg's/bfl/mp prices stamped on their foreheads in invisible ink. No discussion needed.
