Why are things so cheap in American supermarkets?

American supermarkets are cheap because their merchants have a better conscience, less money, and the laws in the United States are more perfect, and if you make too much, you will be reported.

Because other countries in order to increase foreign exchange reserves, often lower than their own goods sold abroad, in order to increase their exports, and now we all know that the polarization of goods, and electronic information products and light industrial products, the United States chokes the throat of electronic products, she does not worry about her products can not be sold, so the external ** expensive, and the internal ** is relatively moderate (the best performance of the people).

Because the United States has pricing power over international agricultural products. In addition to being self-sufficient, American agricultural products are exported abroad in large quantities. Nowadays, the United States is not only a world power in science and technology and high-end manufacturing, but also a major agricultural country.

In order to increase foreign exchange reserves, other countries tend to sell abroad with lower than their own goods, so as to increase their exports, and now it is well known that the polarization of items, as well as electronic information products and light industrial products, the United States chokes the throat of electronic products, she does not worry that her products can not be sold, so the external ** expensive, and the internal ** is relatively moderate (the best performance of the people).

Because the United States is a developed country, American supermarkets are always full of all kinds of things, so they are sold cheaply.

Because the goods in American supermarkets are very cheap, and many of them are made in China, and the yuan has been depreciating, and the dollar is appreciating.

Because it is made in China, and because the United States is choking the throat of electronic products, she does not worry that her products cannot be sold, so it is expensive externally, and relatively moderate internally.

Because some Americans have a higher per capita salary, their consumption is within their range, and if we go to buy something from the United States, we also need to pay some import fees, which is very different from the local people in the United States buying ten.

Compared with the United States, many daily necessities and services are cheaper, such as catering, transportation, accommodation, etc. Among them, the consumption of the following aspects is cheaper in the country:1

Catering: Domestic food and beverage consumption is cheaper than that of the United States, especially when labor costs are low.

Second- and third-tier cities are more people-friendly. However, the high labor cost and high logistics cost of the American catering industry lead to the most expensive. 2.

Public transportation: Domestic public transportation such as subways, buses, taxis, etc. are cheaper than those in the United States. The reason is that domestic traffic congestion and low per capita costs are low, while the public transportation system in the United States is relatively imperfect, and the ** is naturally relatively high.

3.Clothing, shoes and hats: domestic clothing, shoes and hats are cheaper than those in the United States, because the scale of the domestic clothing manufacturing industry is large and the cost is naturally low.

All in all, in China, many products and services have the advantage of being cheap, making the corresponding consumption pressure less than that of the United States, and at the same time, China's population size and market demand have also promoted the reduction of many products and services. Of course, this is not to say that everything in China is cheaper than in the United States, and consumers should consume rationally and choose the consumption method that suits them.

Supermarkets in the United States are all-encompassing, not only can you buy daily necessities, clothing and shoes, some can also buy prescription drugs, some can buy guns, some can buy furniture, some can also buy cars, in short, basically the supermarket you think of can help you do it.

Wal-Mart is known to everyone, no one knows, according to the turnover is the world's largest company, is the leader in the supermarket retail industry, many students first arrived in the United States, the first supermarket is Wal-Mart, Wal-Mart is rich in products, cheap, always maintain the lowest price strategy, I used to often hear people say that 1 knife a dozen eggs, 1 knife and a gallon of milk can be found in Wal-Mart. And Walmart clothing is also very comprehensive, a few dollars of T-shirts, more than a dozen dollars of shoes, the quality is not bad, many low- and middle-income Americans often buy clothes at Wal-Mart.

Walmart is now mainly divided into four forms, Walmart Shopping Mall, Walmart Store, Walmart Community Store, Sam's Club.

Luxury... I just heard that I bought Apple products below, and there are only a few more types of Apple products in the United States, which are not much cheaper than those in China.

Because there is no tax increase.

As the world's No. 1 United States, why are prices so cheap? After reading the long insight.

1.It's very simple, you see, why is 1 US dollar exchanged for about 7 yuan? Because, the demand for dollars around the world is huge. Why? Take China, the European Union, Japan, and India's top economies.

2.It takes a lot of dollars to buy commodities such as **. Why did the United States fight Iraq, Libya, because they want to use the euro, threatening the monetary status of the United States. Including fighting Syria, Iran, Russia, Venezuela, all for the petrodollar settlement.

3.Because the demand is huge. 10 million barrels per day in China and 5 million barrels per day in India. Every year, it's close to tens of millions of dollars in purchases**. Therefore, if you want dollars, you will suffer a loss of ** export to the United States a lot of daily necessities. Can't make a lot of money.

4.In this way, it is very easy for the United States to buy many basic consumer goods very cheaply through a strong dollar. The low prices in the United States are actually caused by China's very cheap daily necessities exported to the United States, such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, electrical appliances, and so on.

5.As a result, the United States has squeezed the world's countries by controlling the dollar settlement of oil commodities, and it continues to do so now. The price is that the United States always has to suppress and bully those countries with high reserves. Fighting a war and installing a puppet regime, in this way, the cost is not small.

6.In essence, it is the United States that uses a powerful military to intimidate oil-producing countries into dollar settlements. Thus squeezing the world through a strong dollar has led to the reality that the United States enjoys the benefits of unprecedented low prices.

Most Americans earn a few thousand dollars a month. Some people may think that Chinese income in a few thousand yuan a month is the mainstream, but it is only enough to eat, not to mention big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, even small cities are living tightly. How can Americans still look so relaxed.

This brings us to the price of goods in the United States.

With so much listed above, there are some things that may vary depending on the region and season. In addition, the United States has a consumption tax, which is about 8%-10%, which varies from state to state. You have to pay 108 yuan to buy something for 100 yuan.

Tips are required for meals, generally 10-20% after tax.

In general, in terms of Americans' monthly income of 2000-3000, life is still passable, and you can buy a cart of things if you go to the supermarket for 100 yuan. If you go shopping for clothes during the New Year and holidays, you can buy a lot with 1,000 yuan.

My place of residence is a six-hour drive from Los Angeles, and the local prices are as anonymous netizens downstairs said. Another person who said "China is cheaper", please give an example, so as not to mislead the questioner.

A simple example: In the United States, even if you earn 2,500 yuan a month as a cleaner, you can afford to eat lobster ($12 pounds) and buy (raise) a popular car (about 20,000 yuan for low configuration). In China, with a monthly income of 2,500 yuan, don't say buy a car in a first-tier city, and you can't afford to give one away.

The income of the American society is generally high, and the average person in the United States earns between $3,000 and $4,000. (equivalent to a monthly income of 2 to 30,000 yuan), while the price of goods in the United States is so cheap. Why is there such a situation where the United States has such a high income and relatively low prices?

According to the International Monetary Organization, China's total GDP is lower than that of the United States, ranking second in the world. However, in terms of purchasing power parity, China's total GDP surpasses that of the United States and ranks first in the world. This fully shows that prices in the United States are more expensive than in China.

It's not just a matter of picking a few cheap ones to generalize.

Because the dollar is the world's currency, the Federal Reserve only needs to go through rounds of money printing, interest rate hikes and other operations to achieve round after round of wool cutting the world, so the price in the United States is the cheapest.

The ** of goods is largely affected by the cost of storage and transportation. The cost of warehousing and transportation goes into the final ** of the product. The United States has done a good job in this regard.

The price of oil in the United States is very low, lower than in China, and the highways in the United States are not charged, so its commodity transportation costs are relatively low, and the commodity can be lowered and kept low. Second, the role of the dollar, the United States can use the dollar's role as a global currency to reduce the value of goods. Third, the United States imports a large number of cheap goods produced by world factories such as China and Vietnam, which greatly reduces the overall price level of the United States.

Because the U.S. dollar is an international currency and has a unique international dominance that can be used to buy goods from other countries, it means that the U.S. can print dollars to get people all over the world to work for them and exploit people all over the world. Therefore, the price of goods in the United States is also relative, and the things produced by Americans in their own country will be more expensive according to the average labor hours in the United States, just like the United States eats ice cream and housing, which is not cheap, but it is cheaper to buy cars, computers, and mobile phones, because they are all made in developing countries, and they exchange dollars for them, so they are cheap.

Credit card not repaid? The bank's money is not repaid, rely on, don't make you weird, or find a way to repay the credit card money, as soon as you have money to deposit all the treasure, the bank is to lend you an umbrella on a sunny day, and you want to pay back this role on a rainy day, I hope you will be honest with your family, work hard in the future, don't overdraft consumption, earn a penny with a penny, I hope you will get out of the sea of misery as soon as possible. The United States provides the world with a large number of high-tech products, providing a range of high-end products, including military protection for Middle Eastern countries, and at the same time they accept petrodollars, and other countries do not have many top-level products and can only provide a large number of low-end products, and there is a relatively small tax revenue.

The reason for the low prices in the United States is because of the high productivity, and the same commodity is produced by one person at 10 per day, while we produce two per person a day, and the quality is not as good as others. Another reason is that the tax in the United States is low, and the tax is clearly marked, and the amount that should be collected is how much, while other countries do not seem to have high taxes on the surface, but there are many hidden taxes, which increase the burden on enterprises, and the price is naturally high.

1. The special status of the US dollar gives the United States the pricing power. The privilege of the US dollar has made the United States the "world central bank", allowing the United States not to be constrained by the shortage of foreign exchange reserves, avoiding the currency and debt crisis that may be caused by a huge deficit, but through the deficit, it has obtained the physical resources and funds needed for domestic economic development.

2. With China and other developing countries as the production area of its low value-added products, 99% of Wal-Mart's goods in the United States are made in China.

3. Low tariffs and low transaction costs make the best decline.

4. Many products in the United States are marked with tax-free prices, so you should also pay attention.
