Alex, you ignorant slut, the reason those items are so expensive is because of the rent they have to pay to be there.

Same reason food is so expensive at public events. Good real estate with high foot traffic by people with money to spend commands premium prices.

This is one of those things you were suppose to learn in middle school.

See? There you go assuming the costs of production should determine the price of products. Shouldn’t the bagel be sold for 50 cents no matter how high their rent is? It’s only fair. It’s economic justice.

We used to tell customers that we couldn’t lower our price any further IF they wanted us to stay in business, support them, train them, and invest in new products. We actually had to educate customers on that simple principle.

If Cortez is not railing against overpriced croissants at La Guardia she is crusading for Climate Change....her job is fairly obvious and the MSM, talking heads etc. are helping her to achieve it....keep her name for whatever inane reason out there along with Cortez, Omar, and Tlaib...these women are changing how things are thought about and how things get done in Pelosi's Congress....

All can be politically vicious but then again, all three smile for the cameras and the folks, keeping us off balance. Tlaib is particularly vicious; as Muslims Omar, Tlaib, and Pressley are dangerous for our Republic...they hate America.

“I plugged in my computer, but the Electrical Union told me to remove my plug from the outlet and tell them that I want my computer plugged in. “”

Same kind of union crap at McCormick place in Chicago.
