    Ticket scalping is not capitalism & certainly no kind of free market. It's an anti-competitive scam -- cornering the market in something & then arbitrarily jacking up the price, when there are no other providers & buyers have no other options, is the very opposite of a free market. So much so it's illegal in capitalist countries. A monopoly if one company, a cartel if several conspiring to soak buyers by artificially manipulating supply & demand.

    It's anti-capitalist, corrupt, ethically wrong at a level comprehensible by a 5-year-old
