A quick lesson on the nature of capitalism
Under capitalism, everything is for sale. Everything. Whether you want to admit it or not. EV-ER-EE-THING.
In America, we take things a step further. Under American-style capitalism, everything is for sale, AND everything has a buyer.
Case in point: with over 4 days to go, this pair of dirty socks on eBay already has 4 bidders. Dirty socks, folks.
As for how I came to be searching eBay for dirty socks, well, that's a post for another time...
