You got it. The guy who wants to, and CAN, sell a $10 cup of coffee couldn't care less that there are 100 million folks who don't want to pay that much for coffee. Drink your folgers in the smug knowledge that you aren't a pretentious effete $10/cup coffee drinker.
But what we have in this scenario, are folks who are demanding to have the $10/cup for $1. Why won't those produces sell THAT product for the price they demand?
Why? Cuz they have a few million folks willing to pay that $10/cup price. Those are the customers that matter to them.
Everyone else can drink Folgers.
