"Thankfully you can just not get the same experience!"
You can only wring so much blood from a stone. The problem of declining working class comfort can't be solved by belt tightening forever. We, as working class folks need to start banding together and reclaiming our portion of profits.
Best way to do that is to create, participate and or support the non industrialized entertainment, not crying in the clouds.
That are so many free/cheap sports to watch, more than often very locally, why sticking to the high dollar working class milking stuff? There are so many cheap yet interesting cultural stuff happening, why going to the big theaters to watch blockbusters? There are so much stuff to do in the woods, national parks, lakes, rivers, why going to entertainment parks when you could be doing fun stuff outside with a lot less money?
