Fight the gas prices

[ima_nerd]

And yet it still has one of the highest mark-ups of any other product found in the supermarket. A two liter of soda costs a little less than a few pennies, if I remember correctly. Regardless, the simplicity of the system is refreshing.

US Corn Growers -> Coke Plant -> Coke Bottling Plant -> Distribution Center -> Supermarket.

Gas by comparison is a bit more complex:

Dinosaurs -> Crude Oil -> (about 50 more steps, all of which I shudder at the thought of trying to understand/write down) -> High prices at the pump.

Too many hands in the cookie jar, and not enough caring about the bottom line - the consumer.

I blame the dinosaurs.
