Vive la discrimination! Paris is choking to death under the weight of tourism and something's gotta give. Higher prices, ticket lottery, year-long reservation lines, some system of crowd management is required.

Of course, the counterpoint is that this year is particularly bad because so many people are avoiding the USA and that the discriminatory prices may backfire once France is not as attractive again.
