but most people don’t really really understand what they’re doing and they’re just stumbling through. Terminology and laws are played fast and loose, and many just copy what they think they’ve heard others say they do and it works. Then there are agents who fix for a price and many of their clients honestly don’t understand how they’re still staying- they just stay.
A lot of layers in the situation but at the end of the day, just because you can get away with something doesn’t mean you should, so excessively? Any real traveler has paid a few gifts and bent a few rules but I get tired of people breaking laws and violating agreements excessively because ‘I can because there are loopholes- blame the system’ and then they’re legit angry when the system that overlooked it, suddenly doesn’t- like they are being victimized now because they can’t keep cheating.
Accountability is a rare and beautiful thing.
