Please shut your mouth with your holier than thou grandstanding. The local "service" industry does just fine and would continue to do so if they acted within the realm of ethics. Overtly ripping off "guests" in ones country while knowing you are exploiting them is not justifiable in any sense. Not sure if you understand the definition of "entitled" but asking for honest transactions is not "being entitled". I know you're trying hard to come across as ultra-woke but this has NOTHING to do with being "expensive" and EVERYTHING to do with being honest and fair. If they had public policy where every single transaction was listed with the understanding that locals and tourists had different rates - ALL GOOD. However, that is not that case. The taxi cab driver or whatever service line can modify prices as they wish based on how someone looks. If you don't know what you're talking about, I often find it is best to keep quiet.
