That's not how economics works, though, is it? I'll sell you my iron ore for the lowest price you can buy it for. Your car costs 1/3 more than a car from another supplier that I didn't happen to sell the iron ore to. Why should I spend more money to buy your car when I already gave you the deal on my iron ore? The two things aren't related. If your landlord is twice as high as the Amish crew, who you gonna use? I guess it matters how many dollars we're talking, doesn't it? |
