Wouldn't be an issue if people got paid properly for their work..enjoy the debt banks. It's going to hit you the worst.
This is one place where that actually wouldn't fix this problem. There is finite capacity at the parks. Disney keep raising the prices as a a disincentive to go. People keep paying the higher prices. source
If everyone was paid properly, that would mean even more people going to the parks.
I think it might solve the problem. The parks might get even more expensive to curb demand, but people could afford to save up for it instead of going into debt and demand would be tempered by the fact that people could afford to do all sorts of other things with their free time.
