Trolling is not a political ideology

No, that's not how it works. You've provided a chart that shows average prices for a specific point in time. That's it. They are constantly fluctuating, and the price is based on supply and demand.

You don't get to charge 3x for an egg just because it's 3x the size. I mean, you can try, but people will not buy it unless that's the equilibrium price. There is no rule stating that price must increase by the same amount as the size of the thing. That's silly.

A thing is worth what people are willing to pay for it. Goose eggs simply aren't as popular as chicken eggs, therefore the demand is lower. Assuming supply remains stable, that means price goes down.

Your time is valuable too. You should be factoring in the amount of additional work required to upkeep.

They want to pay less than three times the cost of a chicken egg, even though geese only lay during the spring and only lay every other day.

That's not how markets work though...

Um, justices don’t owe the president who selected them any favors

Yeah, that's not how it works here anymore.

What's the problem? Should those features only be available to people who know about jailbreaking? It seems like the pressure caused Apple to actually spend some money to add useful features that people obviously wanted. What's the bad thing here?

This is how brain-broken capitalism has made people... The concept of an effective government actually regulating a company and forcing them to spend more money to do the thing they should be doing is just completely foreign to you.

Capitalism. Next question...

This faux concern about the debt is so fucking disingenuous, and I wish people would stop claiming it because you're embarrassing yourselves.

Republicans are ALWAYS worse for the debt.
