There are dominicans that come to the U.S and other visitors from different countries that come here, and we would never do that. Some visitors that come to the U.S make 5x's as much as some citizens that live here. I don't see the point of over charging a visitor to a country. No one has made a valid argument of why someone should be over charge because they are not a resident.
Even as someone who has live in the U.S and when I go to tourist attractions here I am charge the same as a visitor.
I am still not happy about that during my first visit. I did not let it ruin my time, but I felt discriminated by Dominican citizens.

Since you were unhappy with the experience, may I strongly suggest you vacation in the US only from now as this would most certainly never happen there. This way you could spare yourself further disappointment.
