The companies that pay for their products to be certified kosher, do so
because they make more money with the certification than they do
without. If they didn't make more money, they wouldn't pay for the
certification.

If other companies could make the same products without kosher
certification and sell them for less money, then such companies and
uncertified products would exist, because market forces would demand
them.

I realize that this point is probably lost on you, since you probably
believe that Jews control private industry, the stock market, etc., and
use their control to nefariously prevent real capitalism from
flourishing in this country, to the detriment of "real" Americans like
you. Nevertheless, I make the point anyway, for those who aren't so
blinded by moronic anti-semitism that they are actually able to
understand the fact that the capitalist nature of our economy disproves
this absurd conspiracy theory.
