I also find it strange that the Florida theme parks have price increases always within a few days of each other. The cost for Disney has doubled since 2000.

There is a whole group of people out there who wouldn't be able to come to these parks if they were free. People that are living in poverty can't afford the airfare, lodging and food costs. I would think that people living in poverty hopefully would have higher priorities than visiting Disney World.

I know that people that can't afford it really would like to go there as much as everyone else. There are a lot of things that I would like to do that I can't afford. I have zero chance of owning my own private jet or living in a ten million dollar mansion. I have zero chance of summering in the south of France. Here's a little bit of reality for you. Not everyone in the world can do everything that they want.

And where do you get that half of the people in the United States are living at or below the poverty line?
