  1. Love the content, even when I disagree with the conclusions. Always argument worthy. In that vein . . . "Why would you believe a liar?" A great question, TIK . . . but it reveals a possibly uneven leavening in your understanding, and no offense meant. To whit: It seems possible that you don't fully understand the power of the media (and thus product placement and popularity) in the USA. We hate each other because of belief in Liars. Did you see coverage of the capitol riots? That's what it was about. Belief in liars. On both sides. Further, I suggest you might want to remember in future to allow in your calculations a variable factor representing the flow of enemy money into our media fortunes. That's what drives debate in the USA: The political views of Saudi princes* and Russian/Chinese propaganda disguised as news organs and "opinion" pieces. About the price of tea in China and elsewhere . . . TIK, in my experience (which involved a decade in retail and four decades as a paid entertainer) I observed that, when a coffee drinker sees the price of tea is low he thinks: "so what? It's not coffee." I can't believe you tried to pull that one. Brand and product loyalty doesn't figure into your understanding of economics? I bet it does. A greater man than I once observed it's a "Funny Old World". Which see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgGJxboPZv0 *Check into the history of Fox News vis a vis the Saudi prince who was its major stockholder . . . until the public got wind of it. The chief producer/editor of content for the American Right was a Saudi prince . . . iffen that don't beat all.
