I don't understand how these concerts are selling so many tickets at those prices. I make decent money and no kids, but dropping 1k+ on just a ticket to a show is not in the budget. Who the fuck are the people attending these?

America today resembles Tsarist Russia. A vast number of poor working folks, a thin coating of very well to do, and a tiny minority of incredibly wealthy folks.

Idk much about tsarist Russia, but that aptly describes the US.
