"Products are priced based on their cost/value, not the companies overall profit margins"

It doesn't take much to observe that this is just incorrect.

That's how it's supposed to work, and they teach that in your Intro to Economics course, but in reality it just doesn't work that way.

It does, it's just that the "value" gets fucked and manipulated in ways that are bad for the consumer
