dbc03 Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 How do you figure that? The rich get poorer because they spend money on tickets. The poor get richer because DCI gets the money for those tickets. How do you figure that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumcat Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Capitalism is capitalism. I'm not anticapitalism, but DCI doesn't have to put the squeeze on. They choose to. Man... I like you. I really do. But this is silly. Capitalism IS the squeeze! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumcat Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 I will pay exactly the same price for this year's Finals ticket as I did last year...$0. DCI priced me out of Finals years ago. So why are you complaining about the price increase? If you're not going, you're not going. But you're acting like last year to this year is relevant to your "family of five", but in reality, this has nothing to do with reality. You weren't going anyway. Sad. Disgruntled Complainers Planet, indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad.Disgruntled Complainers Planet, indeed! I was never speaking of my family. My family is currently three, will be four next June and maybe five sometime after that. I can afford to go. I choose not to go because I do not think it is worth it. Personally, I may choose to go to quarters and/or semis, but finals is out. However, I was speaking of families in general. The reality is that more and more families are getting priced out, even those with marching members, as we have seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am referring to capitalism in general, not specifically to DCI. The folks who can afford to pay the $290 are not getting poorer because they plan to use that money for entertainment anyway. DCI is richer than it was 10 years ago when it nearly went bankrupt. That's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
