The harm of selling counterfeit goods
1, counterfeit and shoddy goods will reduce the efficiency of market resource allocation.
Market economy is a legal economy based on honesty, with the market as the basic way and main means of resource allocation, and the survival of the fittest and the optimal allocation of resources are realized through the leverage of price and competition.
The appearance of fake and shoddy goods in the market has disrupted the normal market economic order, distorted the lever of price and competition, made it difficult for high-quality goods to survive in the market, and inferior goods became popular, resulting in adverse selection, which destroyed the normal relationship between supply and demand, failed to achieve huge potential consumer surplus, and seriously reduced the efficiency of market resource allocation.
2. Fake and inferior commodities will reduce the social welfare level of consumers.
The satisfaction of high-quality products to buyers is obviously greater than the utility of low-quality products, so consumers are willing to buy high-quality goods as much as possible. In order to obtain high profits, counterfeiters often cheat consumers by selling fake and shoddy goods and deprive them of greater consumer surplus.
Without knowing it, consumers will suffer personal, economic and spiritual losses such as injury, disability and death due to eating and misusing fake and shoddy goods, which greatly reduces the social welfare level of consumers.
