Hmm. In Houston, Texas there was a man selling bottled Dasani water for $15 or $20 a package before the hurricane hit and subsequent flooding that happened. This water sold for $3 a package in the store across the road from him. People who went to the store were unable to purchase water because this guy bought it all up and was scalping it at a huge markup.
So do we march with our pitchforks against the store for not having water at $3 MSRP?
Do we march against Dasani for pricing their water crazily above MSRP?
Do we go to the retailer in the parking lot selling water for crazy prices and tell him that he is a bastard for purchasing all the water and reselling it for prices that people can't afford?
Who do you blame?
The companies that didn't send enough bottled water.
