How does this Work?

Am waiting for a package from Santiago to Bogota. How is it that they send it first to the US? Doesnt this just waste a whole truckload of money and make people wait more?

How do they figure this is efficient?

probably don't have any sorting facility in Santiago so probably ship everything to Miami first.

tried to think of something deep to write here.. but couldn't think of anything..
