Why is that an inevitability? What is unnatural about a supply chain where someone makes item A for $10, takes $2 profit, wholesales person B takes another $2 profit, final salesperson C takes $2 profit?
For products that are actually made and sold in the same country that's not far from reality today. It's just that for most things, they are made in Asia, and income/wealth disparity means the US/Europe end of the chain "has to" take much more of the profits to survive. That doesn't mean its fair, or just, or ethical.
