Episode of Malcolm in the middle where they go to burning man is just hilarious.

$240 is a lot of money to spend to get into a crazy part of the desert for a week.

No, but look up "the places you'll go, burning man" on youtube. One of my favorite videos.

ya dude! you can go pay 240 bucks and then listen to people complain about capitalism and their wish to live in a utopian society with a barter system.

For someone with the name "get educated" this was an extremely uneducated statement.

That being said there are 50,000+ amazing people that make there way to the playa. Some people may complain about capitalism, some praise bacon and some people think there sparkle ponies (if you want to be a dick that's ok too). This is a place for radical self expression and radical self reliance. So how ever you want to act or speak you will be accepted. Burning man management says "Describing burning man to someone who has never been. Is like trying to describe a color to a blind person"

This is where your ticket money goes
