Airlines will make a record $118 billion in extra fees this year—their websites are designed to get you to pay::Airlines are piling on fees for checked bags, assigned seats, and other extras. Here’s how their websites pressure fliers into paying for them.
Micro transactions extend beyond video games and airline companies are the biggest offenders. Flying in the US is a scam and a half. Want a seat? Pay. Want some water? Pay. Pretty soon, want oxygen? PAY!
Nah, the biggest scam is medicine. Need surgery? Pay. Want it done in an operating room? Pay. Want anesthesia? Pay.
I mean, I’m all for single-payer healthcare, but under that system all of the people involved in surgery and anesthesia would still get paid, and I think they should.
People shouldn’t work for free.
I’m fairly certain they don’t think people should work for free, but that the cost of a surgery shouldn’t be several bills to the hospital, the doctor, the anesthesiologist, the nurses, and wherever else they come up with who want s separate bill. When I go to the grocery store, it’s not like I pay the cashier, the stocker, the store itself, and the manager. It’s so confusing when you have to pay several different parties whose bills come in weeks to months after the surgery.
