I think you can also quote Dr. House on that

OK, under normal circumstances you would be right, but doing it with style requires 360 degrees!
Arguably it pairs with the numbers some people put in their worksheets
Oh, but somebody will die if I do that.
How about calling it "invoice" instead of "fine"?
As in the medical insurance example, you would pay the full medical bill instead of copay/coinsurance if you don't have medical insurance.
I forgot one point
* There are the ones who end up marring one of their customers
Many here wouldn't mind a robot that fetches beer!
Some of the prostitutes I have met beg to differ, they rather do prostitution than work for a fast food (granted, not all, but still).
How is that different from feeding some disgusting old lard-arse who could never get a real meal because you need the money?
A friend of mine once told me that she was asked to take care of elderly people, she would need to feed them, clean their (you know what), etc, and was expected to do all this for even less than the federal minimum.
May be we really should be outlawing those jobs too?
(Hint - guys, she's DOESN'T like you.)
* So that's why some (granted, *very* few, but the number is still non-zero) of them stop whatever they are doing and jump to me to hug me and kiss me the very moment I step in the establishment.
* One of them asked me to take her home, and then wanted to do me, *no* charge. She even at one point danced for me, knowing that I already had run out of money, and just threw a napkin to her pile of cash, so to make the other patrons believe that I tipped her.
Some of them actually enjoy "serving" some of their *paying* customers, and some times, well, they have to eat and pay their bills, so they *have* to ask their customers for money, no matter how much they like them.

Will I need to write you a check?
Memory defragmentation?
My bank gives me a checking account + Visa debit card for $5 a month, the credit union where I do hold a savings account gives you a checking account + ATM (eg, not Visa nor Master Card debit cards) card for $8 a month (haven't checked their competitors, though).
If you want to see it that bad, go by yourself. Enjoy the crowds of obnoxious people, screaming babies, filthy floors, cramped seats, blocked views, terrible traffic, and insufficient parking. Yeah, nobody wants to go to the cinema anymore because of crappy cam torrents.
Here in Puerto Rico I paid $3.75 (matinee) the second day of release, the theather was almost empty with plenty of parking (it's in a shopping center), and nice and clean. Nowhere near the experience you describe.
Need they be worried?
I program, therefore I am.
