Unfortunately, the Black Market was controlled by Sauron, and he created a monopoly squandering all Free Trade, and jacking up the prices on items as high as he wanted.

Fortunately Sauron had a large following at that time and not too many minded the high prices.

Unfortunately, this meant that sauron's black market was actually the white market. hte real black market was being run by none other than the master (this is not so remarkable, as he is a man of singular bad repute.)

Unfortunately, the lack of Free Trade cuased a "brain drain" where all the most intelligent folk went off and joined the Red Market, leaving everyong one in the White Market system with out any innovation or enterprenuership, which we all now is necessary for a growing economy, so the economy collapsed, leaving everyone poor, except for the people in the Red Market.

Fortunately, the trickle-down effect took place and the Red Market gave out most of it's money to charities.

Unfortunately most of the money and gold was sent to a charity run by a certain fellow called "Smaug"
