      I agree, however they still shouldn’t be charging 8 million dollars for food.

        In fairness to ski resorts they do have additional overheads.

        Its harder to get supplies in, workers are seasonal and either have to be provided housing or paid more to cover eyewatering seasonal rents, heating… not to say they dont tack on a big “Because you have no other option” tax.

      Just because something else is worse somewhere else, doesn’t mean people can’t complain or feel cheated.

      I think it’s less the feeling of actual, serious persecution and more just an intense annoyance at the perceived unfairness of obviously skeezy business practices.

      Nobody likes being on the receiving end of “Lol because I/we can, that’s why. What are you gonna do about it?”

        I went to the movies last night for the first time in a few years. It was $42 for 2 tickets, and $30 for 2 sodas and a popcorn, and then they had the audacity to ask for a tip.

        Funnily enough McDonald’s outside the airport walls is getting very close to the ones within the walls.

      I’ve never been to a ski resort, never flown on an airplane, never went to a baseball game or concert. How are people affording these luxuries? I’m in the top 10% of earners and my money goes to housing and retirement. I’m still clipping coupons for groceries every week.
