Lower housing cost is generally beneficial to society. Making activities like skiing less exclusive and more accessible is also a benefit. One could argue that skiing doesn't directly benefit society. But by that logic there's not much benefit to art, entertainment, parks, and essentially anything other than food, housing, and healthcare.
- Petersipoi 3y agoSki resorts are already way overcrowded, despite the insane lift prices. How is making it more accessible going to help anything? It's already at maximum capacity.
- throwitaway222 3y agoBuild more mountains, duh! /s
- Manuel_D 3y agoIf they really were at maximum capacity, then ticket sales would drop. But that's not happening.
- Petersipoi 3y agoNo. Not if the price is at an equilibrium that optimizes for maximum capacity.
- Manuel_D 3y agoThen why are people spending so much to buy these houses? The demand is there, if the mountains really are as packed as you claim there wouldn't be so much demand to have easy access to the ski mountain.
