Exactly my point...the price of corn is pretty much set by the commodities markets. The price of corn flakes is determined by whatever the market will bear based on the value added by the people between the producers and the consumers. Is it "fair" or "right"? I don't know. If you artificially inflate the price of corn in corn flakes, it will probably just result in higher prices for corn flakes at the grocery store. Then people will buy rice krispies instead of corn flakes, and the price for corn will go back down.

Importance: Low That's so much bull. I grow corn and right now the price for a bushel is only $2.60 CDN. Do you know how many boxes of corn flakes one bushel can make? If there's anything is this country more out of control it's the price difference paid to producers compared to what consumers pay. There's less than 25 cents worth of corn is a large box that costs over 4 bucks. _______________________________________ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] For new parts see www.buymbparts.com For repairs see www.oldworldauto.com To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://striplin.net/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_striplin.net
