A thorny theory

A veteran claims guy told me he thinks the long term strategy of some carpet mills that sell hard floors is to drive down consumer confidence in carpet. When all the mills that only make carpet have gone out of business, the conspirators would reinvigorate the industry and sell everyone carpet to cover up all those hard floors.

That theory may not make sense and I hope it isn't true, but politics is not the only industry with back room deals. If it is true, we can clean those hard floors but I'd much rather work on a nice comfortable carpet. Wouldn't you?
