I did not say that the lettuce head would COST five cents. I said that "if the lettuce cutters were paid $10 more per hour, the lettuce head in store would cost five cents more"

Finally, the light bulb goes off. Here is your tagline.

(If the lettuce cutters were paid $10 more per hour, the lettuce head in store would cost FIVE CENTS)

Now I guess you understand what I meant in post #638.

Maybe I am dense, but I do not get it.

Hey, we agree. You just left off the word "more" in your tagline. For once I wasn't mocking your socialist tendencies, just your English.

When I pasted, the end got truncated at the end and I did not see it (it was outside of text box). Now I removed "in store" to make space.
