>>1358159>Why can't there be cruise sail ships for the middle class?i'm thinking - and i'm incredibly stupid, so feel free to correct me i guess - that it wouldn't be a sustainable model. because like the airline industry, it would require massive subsidies (direct or indirect, pick your poison) to, well, operate.
like there is no middle class any more, that's late-stage capitalism working as intended. it stands to reason that the only possibilities for sail ships in 2019 are either for the Ryanair model (pack them in like picrelated) or for the 'my daddy owns Google, here's an insta of sunlight streaking through the rigging #blessed' crowd.
i think it would be a cool thing to have, but unfortunately our plane of reality isnt set up to handle sail cruising
