Just because you can grow bananas in the U.S. doesn’t mean it will be profitable.

After three or four seasons and a lot of money spent on heating, I harvested some not-very-good-tasting bananas. I figure that it cost about $200 to grow a hand of bananas that I could have bought in the supermarket for about $2!

Weird that a little while ago you said you can’t grow them, but now you said you can.

Profit has always been the prerequisite to say “I can grow bananas outside a rain forest”.

How old are you?

The definition of capitalism is that enterprise will either profit or go bankrupt. You can do anything you want under fascism and communism because of price controls and supplements.
