IMHO there should be a legal requirement to show TCO over X years for most products: this way those who make quality stuff will be rewarded and won't lose out due to much cheaper but poor quality (in a long term not looks at purchase time) goods.Comment

You are roughly in the 'right' area. Prices of a wide range of items would also deflate too simply because there would not be the ability for the market to support higher prices.
I am not saying that I like the idea, but that is what I think the prospect is.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
