I'll comment here that bashing OC Blades/Slammers/Galaxy/Liverpool has some merit (as does bashing virtually every club out there for something), but let's also take into account the cost of living in OC is way above that in many other places, and this naturally trickles down into other areas.
As an example, my kid's orthodontic quote in OC was like 3-4k out-of-pocket beyond my dental insurance. When I drive an hour and enter Riverside County, I found an orthodontist where I had to pay nothing out-of-pocket for braces-- so the cost was like double in OC. Same goes for real estate and just about everything else.
So I could probably find myself a cheap soccer team far from my home, but driving there 3-4x per week is just not feasible.

The problem is that they are charging almost double of what other OC clubs are now charging. Again, people have a choice to not go there, but what they are charging for what you actually get is pretty crazy. IF what people are quoting is true.

Only for the middle and upper class though, the poor recieving over $1k in government subsidies are SOL if they choose to keep it since it's one or the other. But like we were all taught in school, if everyone got an extra $1k every month, $1k wouldn't be worth $1k anymore.
