gollark: They might actually have less, since the government is bound by laws to provide loans or whatever subject to some fixed constraints, and people will probably complain if the government says "no, we're not paying for this thing".

gollark: Arguably governments subsidizing it worsen the problem, since the government is even *less* sensitive to how much money they're burning than individual people spending money on this stuff.
gollark: This cannot possibly go well.
