People struggling to get by aren’t going to these festivals and setting up tents. They can’t afford it.

They 100 percent are. I am willing to bet a lot of people going are in debt over their heads. Debt gives everyone a sense of security. I dont think you realize how many people just go into debt over this stuff and do not care

I don't think you understand the definition of struggling to get by in todays defintion of struggling to get by. People who cant afford rent but throw 400 dollar concert tickets on their credit card and dont pay it back.... or klarna or whatever other shit they have for debt options.
