WHY?
Do the people who manufacture consumer goods package them in such a fashion that they are impossible to open?
Bubble pack pills
Those weird shrink-wrappy collars on bottles and household goods
Curling irons or scissors or screw drivers in those plastic domed-things that are impervious even to nuclear weapons?
The food packages that come with a corner loose so you can peel back and then replace the wrapping but have such an infinitesimal margin you lose it and use a butcher knife instead?
A friend of mine once had a frenetically busy day, racing hither and yon with kids & sports, work, household. She stopped for gas and grabbed a pack of beef jerky because she was starving.
After an hour of trying all means at her command (car keys, teeth, nail clippers) failed to open the package, she pulled into a parking lot, threw the pack of beef jerky on the concrete and drove over it with her cub-cab pickup. It took seven passes before it finally burst open.
Do you see what I mean? Don't they realize if we can't open it, we can't use it up and therefore will not need more?
At the very least they should have tiny cubes of c-4 explosives in a locked cabinet at the cash register to be supplied with every such purchase.
