I like how they show you multi million dollars worth of equipment that is needed so you can sell your product for tens of dollars. 
I still say the card industry is way shadier even though the end consumers are seriously lied to in all 3 industries. |
Not all of that stuff is a scam.
One vacation a few years ago, my family went to a seafood place that was on an inlet. Pretty cool even though I don't care much for fish. Watched a guy fishing from the parking lot catch a small shark.
The next table over ordered a certain fish, and was told they didn't have .. cue loud air horn and waiter saying "wait just a minute" and going out back. A fishing boat had just pulled in to the docklike thing they had out back. Waiter returns.. "we just got some in"
The U-Conn experimental farm also runs a dairy, and an ice cream shop.
Millions of dollars to sell a product for tens?
Ever seen the price of a really big printing press like the card companies use?
