I get your point, we need to tax these assholes to hell and back. Wealth inequality is one of the biggest global social issues of the time.

But that does not change that YouTube is barely profitable, and will be eventually shut down if it’s not at least somewhat financially viable. It’s a private endeavor. That’s just how that works. If we want that service to stick around, someone will have to pay for it. I’m open to suggestions of funding a public alternative, but YouTube as a business needs funding, whether we like it or not.
