The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore.

How is it legal to make up a fee then offer a paid membership to avoid the fee you just made up? How is that different from the mob guys that would collect your "insurance" membership so that you didn't incur a "business burned down" fee?

"Free market" is neither free not cheap.

All of that kind of stuff is illegal and/or regulated in Europe. It's not perfect mind you, but it's trying to be better. Another good example are car rentals, they can offer you non-required add-ons but other than that, the price you see on the first screen is gonna be your final price.

Biden is trying to implement that in the US, guess who's trying to block it?

Because our governments don't care about us because 40% of the country hates themselves.
