Whatever. I’ve seen quite a few gigs that looked good but when I saw the ticket price I thought “fuck that”, it’s really simple. Did my single action cause a price drop? Of course not, but one rain drop doesn’t cause a flood. All we need is for people to stick together but instead we get people like you crying to daddy government about how unfair it is.
If you want to complain about how expensive something is and then still pay it, that’s a you problem.
If you sell cars at a one hundred percent profit margin but everyone refuses to buy, so you then do some market research and realise people will buy at a 50% profit margin, you lower your price and start making money.
See how the government didn’t need to step in there?
If the customers buy your cars at the 100% profit margin, despite mumbles and grumbles, why would you lower the price?
Inb4: But if there was only one car manufacturer, you’d have to pay!?!?
Yes if you needed a car, no one needs to see Taylor Swift live.
i dont really see how this answers my question. it seems like you said “i’m not arguing against government action” and then proceeded to argue against government action.
and aside from that, it seems like what you’re advocating for is this brutal world where companies are always trying to test you to see how much you’ll put up with. and in this world, every single purchase you make should be interpreted as saying “i can take a little more exploitation before i reach my breaking point”. is this really a world you want to live in? how is that better than asking the government to keep companies in line?

i’m having trouble understanding how
is compatible with your earlier statement:
could you explain that to me?
