A lady asks: "How much do you sell your eggs for?"
The old vendor replies "50¢ an egg, madam.” The lady says, “I'll take 6 eggs for $2.50 or I'm leaving.”
The old salesman replies “Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live.”
She bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that she had won.
She got into her fancy car and went to a fancy restaurant with her friend. She and her friend ordered what they wanted. They ate a little and left a lot of what they had asked for.
They paid the bill, which was $150. The ladies gave $200 and told the fancy restaurant owner to keep the change as a tip...
This story might seem quite normal to the owner of the fancy restaurant, but very unfair to the egg seller...
The question it raises is:
Why do we always need to show that we have power when we buy from the needy?
And why 𝗮re we generous to those who don't even need our generosity?

Our brains are good at pattern recognition and know that the man selling eggs is more likely to be trying to rip us off so we haggle with him, while the restaurant is more likely to be treating us fairly so we tip them to thank them for them for their honesty.

I'm not going to pay $6.00/dozen for eggs.

>The old salesman replies “Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live.”
Maybe if you priced your eggs reasonably you would sell some fucking eggs. They're not even that expensive at the farmer's market in the liberal west coast hellhole I live in

A farmer asks: "How much do you sell your eggs for?"
The chicken replies "For a mouthfeel of seed, sir.” The farmer says, “I'll take all your eggs for whatever seed I can give you.”
The chicken replies “This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live.”
He bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that he had won.
He got into his fancy roadside stall and went to an intersection with his sign. He and his sign got what they wanted. They waved down cars and tried to sell the eggs.
When a driver stopped to buy the eggs, the farmer asked for the exorbitant price of fifty cents, which the chicken would never see, and had never seen such a great sum in his life. The farmer even gave the people who visited his stall a discount.
This story might seem quite normal to the farmer of the chicken eggs, but very unfair to the chicken...
The question it raises is:
Why do we always need to show that we have power when we buy from chicken?
And why 𝗮re we generous to those who don't even need egg chicken our farmer restaurant?

Your misunderstanding of the goods & services different levels of wealth can get one is clear evidence of the fact that you yourself are a filthy unwashed poor, possibly an Irish poor. Even people of modest wealth can afford household help, especially for a chore such as shopping that may only be done once a week. Your understanding of wealth seems to come entirely from magazines and movies
