So is it OK for me to forge a boarding pass to get onto a flight I haven't paid for? Hey, airlines are out to make a buck, so why can't I?

Exactly, and it is those people who you are ripping off by not following the rules. If you don't pay the proper cost for your ticket, who do you think is going to pay the difference? The airline's shareholders? It is going to get passed on as higher fares to those who are willing to follow contracts that we sign.
