gollark: Probably.
gollark: I'm not sure that the subsidies are the problem exactly.
gollark: The only ways to make money are to post memes and get investment commissions, or to get someone else to throw away their money, and it happens that subsidies make it so that that other person can happily just throw away money forever and not be an actual person.
