USB-S, my pet peeve rant of the day.

So the wife's HTC Incredible uses a mini USB charger. My LG also uses a mini USB charger. And my new Kindle Fire (Thanks Baby!)  yep, you guessed it... it also uses a mini USB charger.
So the question we must now ask... Why in the name of sanity, common sense and reasonable logic do these identical mini USB chargers NOT WORK universally with the other 2 devices?????
How can i have three identical USB cords yet while it charges the Incredible it wont charge my Ally? They are both phones! They are within the same family of devices! Borrowing from my brother in law... "Does that make any sense to you?" It sure as hell doesn't to me.
Listen you highly intelligent, progressive-thinking, gadget creating (i'll replace another four letter word with) TECHholes..... Get it together! Majority of devices are going with the mini USB and the majority of these devices are priced probably double or triple what it takes to make them. Are you seriously now going to force me to spend MORE money on an individual charger for each of them???
For all its genius, advances, usefulness and convenience, technology can be... hmm let me rephrase that.... the greedy money hungry techholes that create these technologies can be pretty stupid.

Now you'll excuse me as I need to charge my Kindle, my Ally and my Blackberry.
