and then the carnival workers get fired, because there isn't enough income to pay 3 people. One person has to take tickets and run the rides, which is now more dangerous for you. So they shut it down, and all the cool rides leave town

That’s part of it. Disney’s brand is to be the elite of whatever it’s doing. I married into the fanaticism and have been mostly converted. My spouse essentially treats the trips like she is cosplaying being Royalty. She dresses to the nines
