I’m sure other people have brought up rich people taking a huge share of it already, but there’s also the sheer number of people determined to work in the arts.

I’ll use the example I first noticed. A few years ago, the Conservative government was under criticism for the minimum wage being well under a living wage. In response, they brought in the National Living Wage, which was an increase to the minimum wage, but still under the actual living wage. However, because of the branding, it makes criticising it for not meeting the actual living wage more difficult, as you have to explain the difference between the two, and as the saying goes, “if you’re explaining, you’re losing”.
They’re against anyone else indoctrinating children.

Yeah. Two civilians dead for every one militant is fairly typical for asymmetric warfare.
This says 37 dead, of whom Hezbollah have stated 31 were their fighters.
Cue lawsuits from ISPs in 3, 2, 1…
