Businesses trying to make money is not anti free market just because you don't like the way they do it, but that's not even ostensibly what's going on here. According to this guy one corporation, Taylor, is fleecing another corporation, McDonalds, and McDonalds is complicit in this even though he presented no reason why this would benefit them whatsoever. Maybe there is some convoluted way that McDonalds corporate benefits, but he never even attempted to figure out how. Instead he chalked it up to "old relationships." Which is incredibly flimsy because corporations have business relationships, not personal relationships where people are content to be leached on.
The only way this makes any sense as presented is if Taylor is somehow the only company able to make ice cream machines in the world and the person in charge just hates McDonalds for some reason.
