I was prepared for a Big Lebowski reference here.
Anyway, I have a tough time getting worked up over this. How is ticket scalping a scam? To me, it\'s just transferring an asset through trade, the kind of stuff our capitalist overlords tell us is the magic of the free market. If they\'ve evaded taxes, prosecute them, but don\'t tell me it\'s a scam or a scandal or something like this. Am I missing something? I always worry that I\'m missing something at times like this.
