ELI5: What's so bad about scalping tickets? You own the tickets, why shouldn't you be able to sell them for what people are willing to pay?

In your title, nothing.

What's wrong with the practice is that you buy multiple tickets that you don't intend to use (taking the opportunity away from those who took the time to go there hoping for a seat), and then resell them at a **RIDICULOUS** price.

This will then leave the arena/stadium with empty seats which could've been potential customers of food vendors, merchandise vendors, attires and what not. You're hurting the actual business as much as you're hurting their fans. 

All for a measly buck.
