...but we've had price discrimination for decades in the form of coupons, airplane tickets, and senior discounts. I don't see a particularly loud revolution, at least where I live.
- bryanlarsen 9y agoAirlines are one of the most hated industries, seen much good press about United. And their price discrimination is fairly transparent, it's the opaque discrimination that gets people ranting. Nobody likes being ripped off. Coupons & senior discounts are tolerated both because they're transparent and everybody can or will be able to use them.
