WTF are you talking about ? If we have a trade deal with the USA
will the cost of say an iphone go up or down ?

Apple sets the price they sell things at - not governments.

Who sets the price of VW cars ?

The dealer you buy it from.

Who sets the price of scotch whisky ?

The shop you buy it from.

Drivel. 1st principle of capitalism. Any object is worth what people are
prepared to pay for it.

Have you ever seen a sign in a shop to that effect? No - goods for sale
have a price posted.


You're not at all clever are you?

The price in a shop is the highest people will buy at.

No it's not. If the shop gets it right it's the peak of the profit versus price curve.

It's called a "market".
A market is a place were the monetry worth of an object is established.

may be established, not is established. It often isn't.

When lefty****s try to control this, they end upin trouble.

Or any aspect so business, since lefties so thoroughly fail to understand it. Take the carrier bag charge for example. Informal observation indicates that over 50% at Sainsbury still get new carrier bags, only now they have more than twice as much plastic in than when free.
