If I trip over it in the dark who do I sue?

I think new amateur speculators have driven up prices too. Honestly I don't fault Mexicans for charging Americans more. It just made me decide I don't need to be a gentrifier. I can stay in the US.

I priced airbnbs in Oaxaca then hopped on to a VPN exiting in Brazil and got better prices. Then the next time I tried that I didn't get different pricing.

I don't know what that means.

(I asked this question to try and figure out a financial solution preventing people from having what they want. The hive mind determined this question to be of negative value to the conversation. I removed the offending and distracting question.)

We could go back to government guaranteed loans based on financial circumstances. And we could go back to tuition rates that were compatible with working your way through college. That system worked pretty well. It did drop some students through the cracks because their families were too wealthy for them to qualify and they couldn't or wouldn't work their way to tuition, but it seems like it did a lot less damage than the current system.

It does seem this has risen to the level of "free speech" and I suspect this student will get an education in constitutional law, as well as a fat settlement for his trouble.

This is a funny place. Weird what people upvote and downvote.

I would live there if I could afford it.
