The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

I think the delivery might be the problem more than the message, based on this anyway. But you're not really wrong. Food, clothing, shelter - these are all things you have to obtain, or die. Not so much the case with concert tickets or video games.

Also, that avidamoeba person you replied to wasn't saying concert tickets are a fundamental right, they're saying that prices would go up even if people stop buying, because it's a monopoly and monopolies usually require a government to break up.
