Why? Do you oppose mark up in every other product? Way back when I was a teenager, working in fast food, I was shocked to see how little a large coke cost the retailer compared to what it was sold for. Have you checked out the difference in price for a can of Coke in a vending machine verses a QuickTrip verses a grocery store? The difference in the cost of a liter of Coke and a can of Coke isn't the difference in cost between producing the two products.
