Airports are a scam. Hear me out:

I realise that many crypto users are libertarians or, at the very least, defenders of capitalism. But this "free market" bullshit is exactly that, bullshit.

Stuck in IST (Istambul) for 8 hours and going to have to go hungry. Here are some prices I've found:

- Chocolate Croissant: $8

- Coffee: $6

- McDonalds Meal Deal: $24

Don't even get me started on: 

- Hotel by the hour: $45 an hour

- Lounge: $150 for 4 hours

Maybe, just maybe, some of these prices are reasonable for some folk. But let's break it down a bit:

This is Europe, no the USA. I pay 4-6x less on the street in Spain. In Spain we have higher wages than in Turkey. I have been to several airports, included Changi in Singapore, that are 5x cheaper than this airport. Five fucking times.

So, in a polite manner, I'd like to kindly tell all the "free market" defender to go and take a hike and get a grip on reality.

PS: when the fuck are we starting The Revolution? Burn it all to the fucking ground.
