[quote=Anonymous]A family member works for a company that builds these places. Basically it’s because inflation, property values going up, tariffs, etc, everything is several times more expensive than it should be. So to justify that higher price, you have to make it feel more luxurious. It doesn’t cost that much more to add a few upgrades. As an example, the movie theater has to make $50-$100 a person just to keep the lights on. You can’t charge $75 for a mediocre movie experience. So you add in the reclining seats, sell slightly fancier booze, and slap an elevated name on the whole thing. [/quote]
