Talk about not seeing the forest for the trees. New products create new demand, whether they spring from whole cloth or are advancements. Anytime a single person decides to buy something, that is New Demand, whatever the product it.

Please try to follow the essence of the post, and stop looking for possible gotha moments. You'll be able to contribute that way.
Again, none of those products created a completely new market place. As much as Ford advanced the auto industry, he didn't "invent" the car, the industry, the market or the demand. He did expand the reach of the market and generated demand from ppl priced out up until then. But he didn't created the demand, he satisfied demand that was there already, but either priced out or kept out of the market.

For every iPhone out there there is Blackberry collecting dust somewhere.

Take it up with Walmart's shareholders: public employee unions, etc. They elect the Board of Directors which sets company policy.

Seems THEY prefer Walmart's profits for their pensions, instead.
