Circa 1993 I was in a really small beach town on the south pacific coast of Mexico and bought a quart/liter of Gatorade for about $00.25 USD. Made in Philadelphia if I remember correctly, the same bottle was selling stateside for about $1.50.
If they could manufacture it in Philly, ship it to Mexico and sell it for a quarter, how much profit were they making selling it here for a buck and a half.
Bend over Mr. Consumer, drop trou and back up rapidly.
The same parent company probably owns every apple orchard in the world under different corporate names based out of different countries to skate by monopoly laws in order to fix pricing and fuck consumers. Be a major stock holder in an international shipping company and the deck is really stacked in your favor.
