I Hate The Way This World Has Become

A new terminal has been opened in LA airport. A really exclusive one for the mega-rich willing to pay a 7500$ annual membership fee, plus 3000$ for every international flight you take (only 2700$ in case of a domestic one).

As you can imagine, you are provided with all kinds of luxury there, including an ipad at the counter to look at the main terminal where the mob is queuing and trudging with heavy suitcases 🤢

Elites bragging about their power and wealth more and more. Neo-feudalism at its best

Think of the jobs

@MasterLee: If the airport had built a new terminal to give a better service for everyone, new jobs would be also created

@Cierzo: Yes your jealousy is showing

Cierzo · M

@MasterLee: Jealousy? 😄 Disgust.

It is despicable to see that some people are pampered like kings in the middle ages simply because they have more money, while the common people have to queue for long and fight with greedy companies who think overbooking is something natural and moral, in a society where very often your status has to do more with personal connections and being influential than with hard work.

@Cierzo: So instead of bettering your station, you whine about those who have. Jealousy.

@MasterLee: It is not about my situation or theirs.

Apart from the outrage of the ipad showing the main terminal (which for me is the worst of all), money could have been used to provide a better service for everyone, not only for the rich.

I forgot that for some thinking about common good us being a dangerous commie.

@Cierzo: So you have whined, labeled yourself a commie and not accomplished anything.
