    Or how about we break up the monopoly for the event tickets business and make the outrageous dynamic pricing tactic illegal so we can finally afford to go see live events at decent prices.

      how about we set our plans on more realistic goals like getting a job that pays well?

      I’m not the government and neither are you, voters don’t prioritise this issue so suggesting we just pop on down and break up the ticket selling monopoly is essentially meaningless

        You must be trolling.

        Many artists have issues with the ticketing services and recognize there is a predatory monopoly. Even Taylor Swift has a problem with it.

        And there are no normal jobs that pay enough to afford a regular music concert ticket at over 500$. Heck, I make 6 figures and couldn't afford that with the current cost of living.
