Goldberg Effect

When a company intentionally invents new "schools of thought" with profit as the major incentive.

"Oh damn, those narcotics companies totally invented grammar to force more people into abuse! That's a classic Goldberg Effect!"

Goldberg Effect

A chain reaction intentionally rigged to accomplish a task; inspired by Rube Goldberg (1883-1970)

My coffee maker doesn't have a timer, so I use the Goldberg Effect starting with the alarm clock ringing in my room, then BING! BOOM! BAM! The last rig flips the switch on my coffee maker.
