Demanding a greater % of the final value of a good is a racket?

And you really think that Ghana's cocoa superiority will be upended by some American startup? That's laughable, and certainly not enough of a credible threat to keep Ghana under the boot of economic imperialism.

Ghana has superiority regarding quantity, however historically the quality has been low. This is changing due to US startups cooperating with growers in Ghana and elsewhere to improve the quality, as well as use less exploitative labor, as there is a lack of quality fair trade cacao.
