This isn't expensive, do you know how much it costs to have an artist draw a cover?
No, it is expensive. Something doesn't become not expensive because other non-comparable stuff is more expensive.
You are comparing the cost of something which costs nothing to make, nothing to transport with something which involves time spent by a skilled artist.
They'll spend $1,500 on an HDTV, but spend $125 for an ISBN -- when publishing their novel is presumably one of their lifelong dreams -- hell no! I can't afford it!
What is the making cost of the ISBN? i.e. cost of raw materials, cost of transporting it to the customer etc?
What if they charged 10000$ for an ISBN. Then you would say people buy a car for 15000$ but aren't willing to spend 10000$ for an ISBN.
While, back then, the evidence merely failed to demonstrate that salt was harmful, the evidence from studies published over the past two years actually suggests that restricting how much salt we eat can increase our likelihood of dying prematurely. Put simply, the possibility has been raised that if we were to eat as little salt as the U.S.D.A. and the C.D.C. recommend, weâ(TM)d be harming rather than helping ourselves.
WTL was actually a MS library which supposed to be released with Visual Studio 7.0. However, Visual Studio 7.0 became VS.NET. Native stuff like WTL was put on the backburner and DotNet stuff became priority. Hence WTL was scrapped from the release and Nenad (lead dev) convinced DevDiv to release it under a FOSS license.
GRETA was developed by Eric Niebler who used to work for MSR. He then moved to DevDiv to work on Visual C++ libraries and at that time released GRETA under a FOSS license. Eric then quit Microsoft and joined Boost where he developed Boost.Xpressive which does the same thing as GRETA.
10:1 They got the email but couldn't figure out how to open a zip file.
Then one of the said newspapers hired CmdrTaco. Taco was able to explode the zip file with gzip but then he refused to let others read the documents inside because the documents were not in an open format.
The electric company has no say over what you power with their service
Great. What effect is this statement more like to have - ISPs stop telling you what you can download or not download or - Electric companies getting ideas about having a say over what you power with their service.
Or a blood glucose test strip costing $18, when supermarkets sell them for $0.60
Someone needed to be sent to the supermarket to buy that 1 glucose test strip. I can imagine the cost of person's time and commute coming upto $17.40 at least.
They won't train "flying auto" mechanics at Embry Riddle. They will train people who can manage "flying auto" mechanics, who will make policies for them, boost their morale etc.

You are talking about mass produced ISBNs. Each American ISBN is hand made by a very skilled Artisan who puts in a lot of love and effort into it.
Hashes collide.
There are far simpler solutions which actually don't have such problems.

That still won't stop DHS from ordering one for every security line.
Are you in the mood for some groping?
MS Research released GRETA under an open source license back in 2003.
DevDiv released WTL under an open source license back in 2004.
I think it's just a bad programmer trying to close a bug as 'Won't Fix'.
