We have friends that they would go three times a week to the pool, bring their sandwiches, bring their dinner, have a wonderful time, and then go on home. Well, The new water park just became increasingly expensive to the point that they went there once before. For $18, they could get into the water, into the swimming pool, spend 3, 4 hours in the evening, late afternoon, bring their picnic basket. Well, now, the first time they went to the water park, no food, no drinks from outdoors, nothing. And it averaged out to $60. Isn't that amazing? And to add insult to injury, of course, we pay for this through our taxes. And the four water parks are losing between four and five million dollars a year. (19:57–20:29)
