How is homeopathy even traditional? It was invented in the 1790s by Europeans and only even appeared to work because the homeopathic societies had clean water that didn't have sewage in it, so giving people with cholera the homeopathic treatment of "not other people's body waste, in your water" for a few weeks would cure them.

I don't want to research it; but, was there a market for homeopathy branding of any sort in Europe circa 1800?

Okay, perfect response. But my degenerate butt wanted to know if there was a prototypical homeopathy-brand millionaire way back when that wasn't astroturfed by nobles.

You're right, I jumped the gun on assuming mass media branding.

I kind of get what they are saying with this, challenging the dominant idea of the western medical model being the only way. Enforcing beliefs on non-western people about ways to "do medicine" is an extension of colonialism and you'd ideally work with people to show them evidence and let them integrate best practice with their own way of doing healthcare

Stop it right now.

This wasn't directed at me but the answer is very obvious: they have a captive audience with no other options. It's similar to concerts, sporting events and amusement parks or anywhere else where you can't bring your own food/booze so they just totally soak you. What's someone going to do if they have a 5 hour layover in Philadelphia and get hungry or want a drink?

They also don't get paid for time spent taxiing on the runway or waiting for a delayed takeoff.

Are airports a cartel or something because that seems wild

Kind of, because there's usually one big airport in an area (maybe two if it's a big city) so they don't compete against each other. And then each gets to choose who's allowed to set up shop inside.

That sounds like local shops kicking up (squeezing their customers) to pay up to an executive board (squeezing the shops and pilots) that allows them to operate. I'm guessing franchise owners only get a fraction of the upsell.
