How about Obama give it a break. Tax, tax, tax, tax, tax.

Sure banjo millions do but many still fly. Do you have a problem with the Obama tax increase on plane fares?

Wow, do you really need the dots connected?

Some work and live far away from Disney so if they want to take the kids they have to fly. Disney is raising their price but those people who can't drive also have to pay higher plane fare if Obama gets his way.

Again, what does President Obama have to do with Disney?

The thread title is "Disney raising prices", not President Obama raising prices. Again, you deflect from the conversation in an effort to avoid answering any of my questions.

And what exactly do you mean by "trying so hard"? I need an answer.

I have never been to DisneyLand or DisneyWorld, and I'm in my 20s. I want to eventually try it. The way I see it, the cost is annoying, but if I really want it, it is better for me to wait and save for it.

My wife and I go to the casino occasionally. We don't spend $190 ($95 x 2) for both of us. And sometimes we win.

I've been to both DisneyLand and DisneyWorld. I'll take the casino. More fun, the food is better (and free with comp points) and is less stressful.
