Airlines are the biggest scammers. We need a real government that sets price & service caps.
Joke's on them, I'm cheap as fuck.
Delta has been by go-to airline for a long time. After reading this, I never want to fly with them again. Fuck them and anyone else who does this. If we collectively do nothing to put a stop to this practice now, it will be everywhere soon. I fucking hate this level of capitalism. Greedy fucks.

But AI allows us to turn talentless hacks into “artists”! How on earth can such a blessing be used for bad!!
Woe to all of us!
(obligatory s/)
And now I will eliminate Delta airlines from my airline options when I travel, because fuck this shit
Great, so m/billionaires get charged 100x more, right. Right?
this is basically like "we can't keep our shareholders happy in their quest for infinite return on investment without you overpaying for our services"
When at school, I was being told this is illegal. Public offering and all that.
That is, I wouldn't mind with something like ancap in place (to preserve things like competition and privacy), but I see no good things from ancap being implemented anywhere, while the bad things seem to not be meeting any resistance at all.
So, 1) how's this legal, 2) ... oh, have read in the comments that it's still not. Thanks.
Please let it be stupidly implemented such that I can convince the AI to pay me to fly Delta. (IMHO, how are they even a big airline player? I give it they are a step above Spirit but that’s all they got)
what is my function
"You raise prices."
