All I can say is this;
Yes it always sucking paying for something that was free in the first place.
HOWEVER! If the average stay is 7 days, and you stay at a deluxe level resort, if the extra $161 is what makes you decide not to stay on property anymore or not go to WDW anymore, than perhaps you shouldn't be going to WDW in the first place? If less than 200 bucks makes it impossible for you to go, than should you really be spending money on a vacation anyway?
I know this is going to sound elitist or mean, but it's true.
An extra $161 wouldn't hurt us at all. But it is pure greed and there is no good reason for it. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth and it will change how we do Disney in the future.
There are a lot of families who have to scrimp and save for years to make Disney happen just once for their kids. An extra $161 really could make a big difference in their Disney experience. Just because a family has to save up and budget very carefully does not mean they have no business going.
