'Scuse me, but far as I'm concerned, you are whining right now.
"Those GREEDY so and so's! See if they get any of my business any more!"
I've said it before; I never imagined I would find so many anti-capitalist people on this forum. Buy low and sell high. Take a chance in order to possibly make a big profit. I'm sure the miners out west in the 1880s and 90s despised the people who paid a dime a tin for sardines, then packed them across hundreds of miles, and sold them for a dollar a tin. GREED!!
Back in the late 69s early 70s, my brother and I used to buy cantaloupes for less than a dime each on the Cordele, Ga farmers market and haul them to Columbus, where we sold them to grocery stores for up to 75 cents. We were GREEDY!
GREED is what makes America a place where there is plenty of almost anything people want. What is the desire to make money, if it isn't GREED! You can talk about a reasonable profit all you want to, but a reasonable profit/price is whatever the market will bear.
