Aren't ticket barriers just another expression of this ideology

No, their the expression of an ideology which elates _corporate_
greed as the supreme virtue.
That's an artificial difference. Adam Smith did not make such a
silly statement.
You're right. He would've had proofreaders to check for "they're/their"
errors. ;-)
But my essential point still stands. The biggest trick the capitalists
ever played was tricking people into believing that corporate greed is
somehow the same as personal greed. I'm surprised to see a dedicated
left-winger like yourself falling for it.
