Congressional Democrats reveal that working Americans are paying the price for Trump's $1.5 trillion military funding, with gas prices soaring and families struggling to afford essentials. Are Republicans prioritizing war over the well-being of American families?
An excavator and a person digging a hole charge two vastly different rates.
Equipment is $100+ an hour, plus the operator at $30+, hole digging can be done minimum wage. If your excavator is broken and you try and charge the same rates, you’re gonna be outta business fast. It’s up to you to be fluid enough and have labour to handle issues like this. Like if it breaks down, you better already have a contingent plan, even if it costs your own paycheque.
That said, companies will do posts holes for $20 a hole with 10 minimum. But that’s free access and an auger only. Removal is on you.
Yes, you’ve found the holes in a simplified toy example meant to convey how complicating logistics can mean neither party in a transaction is benefiting from increased prices.
If you want to join me, there’s a Physics 101 class in the other room assuming a vacuum with zero friction and a simple pendulum on a massless string; we can go point out all the ways their example is bullshit.

If everyone’s excavators are broken it’s going to cost more for everyone.
