correct. and when everyone refuses to pay for a $40 movie, the price will
adjust. Not as simple when dealing with government-greed ... and everything
government does is as a monopoly, so consumers are denied choice. I would fix
this by moving everything government does out and into the competitive sector.

Indeed it is. But it is unfortunate that so many corporations abuse this so
often now. There just is so little integrity left in business theses days.
The motto "Greed is good" is alive and well.

FHS-65 <FHS-65@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Subject: [fhs-65] ≈$40 I just watched a bit on the
evening news about the new Batman movie
coming to the AMC theaters. The story was about how AMC is charging
more for Batman than other movies, playing at the same theaters at the
same time. If we were both going to this movie, and would both go
together if we went, it would cost us nearly $40.
Does anyone else find this a ridiculously high price for attending a
movie? The theaters are complaining that people are not coming back to
the theaters - well, DUH!
