How capitalism made concerts be a bourgeois entertainment only - Lemmygrad

I bought 4 tickets to Taylor Swift for my girlfriend and her friends and paid $407.57 total after all of the bullshit Ticketmaster fees.

~$101 per ticket isn’t cheap, but $900+ per ticket is either scalper/resale prices day of the show, or for some fancy VIP tickets, or just a made up number.

Note that the only source listed is bls, and I am pretty sure they don’t track concert tickets 🤔.

lol yes exactly. Kind of hilarious and stupid that they reference BLS as a source, which I’m assuming they meant for the minimum wage figure to calculate the hours, but they also don’t show what that minimum wage figure is on the infographic….

Just a really poorly crafted piece of rage bait designed to do exactly what it’s doing here - piss people off so they share it.
