I havnt noticed any figures on what markup there is on goods from the price which the original producer got. i suspect that most of the price paid in a store goes to the retailer or middle men, not the manufacturer. Consider the impact if more went to the producer, or indeed the goods were significantly cheaper. This is a massive unproductive overhead of middle men doing nothing useful.
Try swimming to China every time you need to buy something. You will burn calories and ruin the "unproductive overhead" industry and even feed sharks and other marine lifeforms.
