Topic	Detroit Music Festival Charges White People Double
Mead 07/07/19 2:30:20 PM #19:	pedro45 posted... I guess it's kinda like charging different rates based on age, something you can't control either for yourself. They should have approached it as a discount like they do for children or seniors since that isn't discrimination. Like others are saying, maybe a low income option or something would have been more...appropriate. What are they gonna do though ask people to show a pay stub or their w-2 as evidence of their income? There are real issues with low income communities struggling but it doesnt fall on a freaking music festival to try and solve societal ills by deciding who should and shouldnt pay more for a service A non-moronic way to do things would have been to charge $20 a ticket for everyone and have 25% of the money go towards local programs to help struggling families --- If they drag you through the mud, it doesnt change whats in your blood <cite>Mead posted [p:924367383] in Detroit Mu...
