I bet lots of people here pay prices for beer that a lot of people think is stupid. A man dying of thirst in the desert would happily pay $100 for the last bottle of water. Is he stupid too? I'd say he'd be stupid not to pay it. |
Ah had it backwards. Thanks!

True, but as economists like to say, in the long-term we're all dead. You are assuming we're already in the long-term but we're not. And the fact that beer is still a profitable business proves that. Profit is not fixed, some breweries are more profitable than others and not just because their costs are lower. |

tl;dr. Back to beer stuff. So this guy walks into a bar, and then, well, he orders a beer.
I think I missed the punchline.

Wait. That might be backwards.

I just missed this whole econ part and I'm pissed. I am a fellow econ major and missed this discussion. Fortunately I'm drunk and do not wish to restart the argument. Go economics!
