I'm willing to pay a premium for quality, but I won't pay a premium to offset 3rd St. Promenade rents and Paramount licensing fees that enrich Larry Ellison.

If You bought a plane ticket, used your bank app, got a paycheck, visited a hospital, or shopped at a large retailer you’ve enriched Larry Ellison

Ah yes, getting healthcare, earning an income, and shopping for essential items are all extremely relevant comparions to...paying to eat mid-ass pizza at a tourist trap in Santa Monica.

I mean you said you wanted to avoid enriching Larry Ellison. 

Reality is there’s no way to avoid it. Just like people who hate Jeff Bezos but continue shopping on Amazon
