		<description>I really can&#039;t object to Disney raising their prices.  To be honest most people if given an opportunity will charge as much as traffic will bare so why not Disney.  What I really find offensive is our local movie theater charging $5.50 for a slushie and $7 for popcorn.  Thank god for NetFlix and microwave popcorn.</description>

		<description>Fat and lazy, Etc, Has nothing to do with it.  With the increase of costs to operate a business $2.00 dollars is nothing, nor is 10-20% increase in prices. I live in Colorado and travel to Disney every year for my children. If thats all you have to complain about move to Denver and then you can complain about prices..........</description>

		<description>Ok reading all of this is really irritating! I am one of those fat lazy people as most are putting it that rent the ECV...am I fat YES, am I lazy NO...I have torn meniscus in both knees, 3 herniations in my back from car accident many many years ago and 1 herniation in my neck from the same accident. Would I like to walk the parks with my kids? OF COURSE! Problem is, I can&#039;t....I can walk for maybe a 1/2 hr to 45 min but that&#039;s about it. I plan on riding a while, parking, walking and sending my daughter to pick up the ECV like I always do. Basically, I walk until I can&#039;t walk anymore....now I do believe that some form of proof should be required to rent one of the ECV&#039;s..my doctor would gladly give me a note or I could just show my Handicapped place marker registration too...point is, I agree with some of you who say people just rent them to get to the front of the line....I have seen many healthy looking/people walking with no problems hop right off the ECV to trade with someone else. Just because they pay for it doesn&#039;t make it ok! My mom has a walker that she is taking with us...she won&#039;t go in the wheelchair because she is plain stubborn! Anyway enough venting for now :)</description>

		<description>Disney is primarily a FAMILY theme park! I was so disgusted by this comment. Why do you think pleasure island no longer exists??? If you want to go somewhere more Adult oriented go to Universal and stop dogging Disney for being a family park.  You probably don&#039;t have kids right? I&#039;ll be very surprised if you do.</description>

		<description>If you don&#039;t like what Disney (and other theme parks in the area) are doing don&#039;t go. 

It is that simple. Don&#039;t spend your money there...spend it somewhere else if you want. But realize that everywhere you go there are going to be expenses that are up to an individual to decide if they want to pay it or not. 

Dinner out a restaraunt: Prices have gone up, portions have gone down in size. Do you go there and eat and complain or do you stay home and eat for about the same cost? (consider grocery prices going up, time spent cooking, cleaning up etc) 

Sea World: raised their prices as well. It is a park with limited options on where to go and how often do you really need to go anyay? Seen Shamu once, seen him a few times...same whale different day. 
At least at Disney you have 4 parks with different themes to waste your money on. 

Lets talk about groceries, they have gone up as well...no one complains about that though. Why? Because FOOD is a necessity...theme parks are not. 

As for for Wheelchair rentals ..why should they be free? They weren&#039;t free when they were purchased, they are not free to maintain for safety and state codes. They are not free to charge with electricity. Are your strollers free when you get them at the store for your kids? 

Lockers are a convience..but why are they needed. Store the extra baggage you brought with you under the stroller and avoid renting a locker. Have the person sitting in the wheelchair be the baggage carrier. 

Just a few thoughts from someone who doesn&#039;t go to Disney because I choose not to spend my money there. Oh..and like most people in the state I used to work for the mouse and think they are awesome..however, that does not mean I am blinded by loyalty. 
They provided a great place to work at one time and I remember those days fondly..but I am not going to pay for something that is not worth the price.</description>
