I’m trying to understand like why tomatoes cost almost 2 dollars a pound, like how do we just make everything cheaper? So I went back and I’m thinking OK Walmart is buying from their distributor, maybe the distributor is buying from farmers, then what comes before farmers?
Poor heck let’s even talk about a vehicle like a damn fully loaded pick up truck is $90,000 right now, sure we can work our way back as to who made the metal that they could make all the parts from, let’s see the guys supplying the metal is he setting the prices based on his own expenses?
I understand this is such a dumb question and I keep trying to work backwards for everything but like in the end, ultimately who is the very, very first absolute first person in the supply chain that gets to dictate why everything is so expensive?
