The problem is that all tigers want steak, but only a fourth of them can afford it. That number is increasing as the tigers get richer in general. And the steak industry is ruining the world.
- eru 4y agoThe price of steak will go up until demand equals supply. (And there will be plenty of incentives to come up with cheaper steaks or steak alternatives.)
