Re: Annoying pedantry

Its just routing government gouging, because its nobody's job to say if its reasonable, only that a "process" has been followed.

Part of the increased price is CYA paperwork, plus some extra testing and certification.. etc. etc. etc. The end result is everyone on the board of the aspirin company gets a new Porsche or Ferrari. So, not "gouging" but "profit" for hard work on their part.
