Growing up in Canada we did not refer to tissues as tissues. We called them Kleenex. It’s one of those weird Canadian-isms.

    I really left to wonder whether the unique complexity is that they can’t produce it for cheap enough and would rather not produce it at all rather than not make as much money as they did the year before.

    Companies would probably prefer to lose business completely than not make as much money as they could.

      That’s a possibility but another is that they would have to operate at a loss, which I would understand shutting down since they wouldn’t make any profit at all.
