A feculator represents capitalism in its most perverse form. Feculation keeps the market artficially overinflated & takes unfair advantage of those who want to buy motorcycles for their intended purpose - TO BE RIDDEN - and want them so badly they will bend over & sadly succumb to a financial ass-reaming. feculate,v. see also, profiteering scumbag. -- David Strang
