1. Market driven
sounds like I don't want to be there, like Dell, Wal-Mart, GEICO, Best Buy, Target, Sony, Apple, Microsoft, GE, GM, Ford.............. All these companies are "market driven"..............

2. Market Driven
Thats a beautiful little buzz phraze that has been around for a while now. When ever you hear this phrase meke the person using it tell you exactly which market he or she is referring to. in the 1800 being market driven could have easily been referring to the slave market selling human beings. or in todays world the term could easily refer to the Arms market or the market for body parts. I think a few illustrations like this will force these people to at least be more thoughtful in their speech. one would hope

Like when Pus Limbaugh goes doctor shopping, or to the local Amoco mart to hook up with his wholesale pill supplier.
