The barista offered to remake it for free in under two minutes, and the guy still stormed out, slammed the door, and left his latte behind. He paid six dollars for a drink he refused to drink because of a milk preference.

He stood outside taking photos, muttering to himself, and pacing around for a solid 20 minutes like he was building a legal case. The car moved two hours later and absolutely nothing happened.

If the chemical formulation and dosage are legally required to be the exact same, why is the price disparity between branded and generic pharmaceuticals so large?
