This shows how the Market can work when it is working correctly.
It is a complicated machine, with many expensive parts, that cost less than $100.
The coffee it uses is made by a complicated Industry that includes many independent farmers, processors that take the coffee fruit and turn it into the coffee bean, roasters that blend the beans and roast them - and the chemical companies that produce the sprays that keep the plants healthy.
And the coffee pickers that show up at harvest time, many of them from Nicaragua and Panama. Technically, they are illegal but everyone overlooks this, during the picking season that lasts from November to February. After which, they are strongly encouraged to return home.
