I'm not sure how this is dystopian, to be honest. Pretty much any business expects you to actually buy something if you're using the facilities.
having nowhere to be where im not expected to pay up sounds pretty dystopian to me.
It does, but I don't think it's reasonable to expect a private company to provide that to you. Public spaces should be the responsibility of local government.
this is the problem i'm alluding to. private companies have bought everything to the point theres not much left for us anymore.
