I doubt you've actually been to burning man. If you have actually been, I don't think you spent enough time looking around or talking to people.
People that shouldn't be there (financially) still find a way to go; it's no different than many of the diversions we pursue in life.
How much do you think it costs exactly? Historically, as little as a few hundred could get you there. Less than the air fare many people spend to fly home for the holidays.

- binarycrusader 12y agoThe definition of "poor" is subjective; I know people that have gone to burning man that met the federal definition of "poverty". Is that "poor" enough for you? You also seem to be ignoring the people that can't afford to go that are sponsored by others as a gift. We're clearly going to have to agree to disagree.
- bradleysmith 12y agoLOL, there are plenty of people at BM that can afford to do LITERALLY nothing else. Regional burns too. Your perspective of poverty may be a bit skewed. You think junkies can AFFORD a heroin habit?
