How do you know I can't afford it? That's kind of presumptuous, let alone arrogant. Why should I subsidize your income with some of mine? Provide your service and let the market set the price. I'll fly if I see the value and it's worth it to me. You keep flying if it's worth to you. It's a free market economy.
We all make choices.
There you go again worshiping at the alter of a pure free market economy.. which we don't live in btw.
So I suppose you don't have a problem with tennis shoes made in China in slave shops? OR a problem sending radiologists work to India? or Honeywell doing a lot of it's software engineering in India, and the so on... all you care about is that the Walmart blue light (or what ever color) special is on?
This is what I call moral bankruptcy.. and who wins from your attitude? The greedy corporations. Free markets need to be tempered and balanced with protections. Even the stock market has them.
