What is stubhub? Does it have people who buy bulk and then resale like brokers?

In the long run, yes. The guy I sat next to at this last Springsteen show said he paid $25 under face for his ticket and there were many tickets still available.
Removing the market is the only real way to stop it. You can make it illegal all you want, and that will make it harder to buy and sell, but it won't eliminate it.

People stop buying from scalpers.
No matter what.
Not everyone is willing to do that. That's why they can sell at inflated prices.
