I thought the economy was in shambles? How are parents paying for these tickets? I keep reading stories in the MSM about kids with no insurance, not being able to educate the kids, schools falling apart, but this story is about parents paying $250 for their children to be entertained?
Is this in the same country of the MSM claiming the economy is ready to collapse?
I would seriously laugh if it wasn’t so pathetic.

Years ago, I worked with this woman — divorced with two children — who was always whining about money — ex-husband wouldn’t pay support (she claimed), always broke, etc. etc. This was when the Cabbage Patch Kids were all the rage. This woman stood in line somewhere and paid a hundred bucks or so for this Cabbage Patch Kid for her daughter. When I suggested to her that perhaps if she would refrain from buying an ugly doll for her child at an inflated price, she might actually have money for all those necessities that she whined about, she pitched a fit. I wouldn’t know, she said, because I don’t have children. I told her that true, I don’t have children, but I know how I was raised. My parents did the best they could for my brother and me — we always had the basic necessities, plus more than enough toys and what not — but if they didn’t have the money for some toy or game we wanted, we didn’t get it. That simple. But I guess that’s not how it’s done now. People will go into bankruptcy to buy their kids everything they “need.”
