    Lizard brain. Basic stuff we’ve all lived with (by living in a society) since kids were old enough to give voice to a parent that it’s not being fair if big sis gets a cookie and I don’t.

    “I WANT AN ICE CREAM TOO, MOM!” “Of course, Billy, it’s only fair.”

    So this guy wants his seat for free too. Because in his mind it’s only fair. And if that can’t happen he wants the opposite, them paying the same as he did, for the same reason.

    Inertia. Habit. History. They all rule the day.
