if congress wanted your testimony do you think that your comfort would be a factor in what they do and how they do it? The law is different for the very rich. It's aspirational rather than authoritative. "We would really like to comply, but I just don't think it's gonna work out."
To be fair, I don't feel comfortable sharing information with anyone, let alone fucking congress. So I can kinda see their point.
On the other hand, I also don't feel comfortable with the spokesperson not getting raped with a rake. What now, spokesperson? How shall we solve this little dilemma?
Local mom has one weird trick to tell Congress to pound sand, Congressman hate her for it!
D'aww the poor dears. Wouldn't wanna make them uncomfortable
pinches cheek
Is it unreasonable to pray this is the thing that gets young voters to actually vote?
They have plenty of reasons, this is just a clear cut example to point to and say "see? This right here is going on everywhere, and that's why things suck. This shit right here - this is the problem"
It's got attention and hardly anyone is defending Ticketmaster... They're pretty universally hated, even my conservative family members who reflexively jump up to defend businesses complain about them
I hope people will start looking at Amazon, Google, Facebook, grocery store suppliers, and everywhere else, and see the same patterns of companies racing each other to make worse products at higher prices
Here in Germany there are some venues that sell their tickets through dice.fm which seems not to charge extreme fees. Is this something that’s also available where you folks are?
Live nation owns all the event locations, so not really. It’s really ridiculous. Back in the early 2000s or late 90’s you could get tickets for good bands at around $15-30. All day festivals would be around $20 and 3 day events were something like $100.
Can’t even see nickleback now for $100
I bet they hand out trophies at the corporations when they get investigated for egregious pricing.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
