Seriously. If I decide to raise prices at my store (I don't have a store) because something is knowingly scarce - let's say toilet paper for example. Then I'd be at risk of price gouging.

But somehow jews can charge $6 for a package of M&Ms and $8.50 for a 32 oz soda and it's just A-OK?

Fucking kikes.

Never been to an amusement park?

Go to the dollar store. They have all the same candies for a dollar. If the movie worker asks why you rattle when you walk just tell them you had a rain stick implanted for your trans surgery.

I used to work in a movie theater in high school. We really didn't give a fuck. Just don't leave dirty diapers in the theater.

It's a place where normal people go to socialize and watch entertaining and enlightening productions.

Of course, if you're a toothless redneck that can't afford to go anywhere except the nearby bar, you wouldn't know anything about that.

Your insult doesn't even make sense, but I'm highly entertained by your enlightening productions. I'm impressed that a niggerneck can type coherently, even if the thought itself is openly contradictory.

It's price discrimination. A technique used to charge rich ( and stupid ) people more money.

Other examples:
Indian textbooks are the same as US textbooks but cost much less.
Cell phones typically charge $100 for 32 GB of extra storage even though retail price of that storage is about $10.

No, it’s captive audience. Price discrimination would be if they were charging students or OAPs less for the popcorn. This is about being able to charge high prices due to a lack of other available options within the cinema, so it’s a captive market. If a high street shop tried the same they would just lose customers to more competitively priced alternatives. And re the OP’s post, price gouging laws are retarded and are made up by lawmakers with no understanding of basic economics.

I haven't seen a movie since they first started putting fucking commercials in before and during the trailers. It was around that time when new releases were becoming more overtly subversive anyway.

The high prices of confections and drinks was bad, checking the ladies' purses for smuggled in "contraband" was worse, but paying to see fucking ads? That's where I drew the line.

[ - ] Whatthefuck 1 point 2.1 yearsMar 23, 2022 12:56:47 ago (+1/-0)

The good news is, that garbage isn't food and you already shouldn't eat it. Also, the movies are all propaganda, and shouldn't be watched.

This is a problem that solves itself. It already only affects people who deserve to be ritually humiliated, and it has the added bonus of being something you have to do to yourself.

Should it also be illegal to punch yourself in the face?

Don't go see Jewish Hollywood movies. They are such degenerate trash, those films. They push adultery race-mixing, and drugs and alcohol constantly.

A stock can triple in price. A house flipper can buy in a hot market and sell a week later for 100k profit. But if you have the foresight to buy and store what is needed for when it is needed, or if you have the initiative and awareness to transport items to where they are needed, then you're price gouging. Sure.

Buy and store what is needed? For watching movies? But then not allowing people to also 'buy and store what is needed'?

You are a self admitted literal moron. Enjoy your short time here.

I always sneak my munchies into the theater for this exact reason. Plus they don't sell baked beans at the concessions stand, so I have to bring my own.

I haven't been to a theater in ages. we have a "drive in" which is a gravel lot. the screen is a white projection screen hung on shipping containers.

only Whites and White families. no spics or niggers ever, though there aren't niggers here anyway. there are some wetbacks.

Because at a movie theater the item isn’t scarce. Gouging is only applicable during shortages. It’s not that difficult.

[ - ] GlowNiggerDick 0 points 2.1 yearsMar 23, 2022 09:44:56 ago (+0/-0)

Price gouging is when you raise prices of essential items during a state of emergency to profit off desperate people.

Speculation is a very real problem. Speculators will buy up goods and create they very shortage they are looking to gouge in. This is a serious problem with more than emergencies though.

"I went to a bar and it cost me $6 for a single beer; SIX DOLLARS! This is knowingly price gouging me- I could get an entire 6 pack for the price of one beer "But that's how the bar stays open" they say. Yeah right, can't fool me you fuckin kikes"

:-P I like you, you have a good sense of humor. But seriously, this seems to be a simple misunderstanding of basic economics. There are a couple of really good primers including Economics in One Lesson by Henery Hazlitt (not a jew) https://archive.org/details/HenryHazlittEconomicsInOneLesson2

Theaters have to pay for the movies. They don't make money on ticket sales.

The concession stand is their only profit center.
