Just because it costs this to manufacture and develop does not mean it is worth this to a consumer in terms of customer value.

This is especially true right now, when the enormous gulf between the wealthy and poor is the worst we've seen in living memory.

People are struggling to pay their rent, and yet Apple is over here selling this bullshit to people.

As long as people keep buying, companies will keep selling.
