All but one of which are made expensive through artificial scarcity so that rich leeches can leech some more. And they're selling air too, just haven't found a way to legally limit access to it yet.

They can't sell it, but they can pollute air and then sell you "time off" on the clean air of their resorts, which is good enough

They can and do literally sell air. Because why leave money on the table, as exploiters are fond of saying 🤬

They didn't even bother to make it canned. Reality is truly worse than fiction.
