People really need to start to understand what it takes to bring a product to market before they start backing kickstarters

Alternatively people should stop looking at Kickstarting as buying or investing in a product. It's closer to a donation to help someone try and realize their idea. You support cool idea you think should exist and that should by your primary motivation. Getting something out of it is just added bonus.
