The Problem With Disney Parks Is Our Inflexibility

[lazyboy97o]

Paying per ride would suck, much better to pay a single price IMO. Of course that was the way the parks opened, paying per ride. Glad it changed. Not a Disney innovation from what I hear but a great one.

A Six Flags innovation.

Yup, Florida made it illegal. I understand the macroeconomics concept of supply and demand, but free markets hurt the most vulnerable. Price gouging is exploitative. Having gone through a hurricane in Florida, vendors sold ice for $20 a bag, not because of scarcity, but because they could. There was plenty of ice, but when one vendor raised his price, others started.... When you don't have power for 5 days, like I did, you will pay just about anything for ice...

Bingo. When Katrina hit here, my evil ex fiancé and I went nuts trying to find ice, because we had to keep her bedridden grandfather cooled down.
