    Sorry, but the entire u.s. economy is actually run on this kind of scam logic. Honest people are run out or killed a few years in. Like with cops. It’s in the college textbooks, but naturally none of the news channels can cover the details at any length, due to conflict of interest in funding.

      The US food industry is based on bulk size as a reason to spend more. We buy in bulk and all of the large stuff is “value sizes”. They wouldn’t obfuscate the size of their soda to make it seem like you were getting a smaller amount.
