you can model the tax on the supply or the demand. in most simple models the outcome is the same

every dollar you raise, the fewer customers you get. the point is that you should want to raise the price whenever the relative drop in customers is less than the relative increase in price to maximise profits (where marginal cost is marginal benefit :) )

you still need to sell the burger to make your income (franchising aside for now). no matter how monopolistic you are, there is always a demand constraint

actually history is just our collective understanding of the past, so if it changes, history changes

can't you just buy a cheaper USB 3.0 speed cable anyway? or is this a hardware limitation that Apple have put in the port of the phone?

isn't this supposed to be mitigated by the fact that the tritium eventually blends into the larger ocean such that the concentration remains in harmless levels at the end anyway?
