Posturing themselves in five years for some odd government hand-out...will be a fascinating event to occur. I can see the deal slide via congress...if you show a 30,000 subscription level...the government will compensate you with another 10,000 “free citizens” on your books and pay you for that group...thus making up 25 percent of your profit...without you putting up any cost.
Once we figure this out and understand this...suddenly we will all open up newspapers across the country...four pages at the most...and sell 1,000 subscriptions...and getting another 250 “free citizens” on our books for profit.
After a while...the other print-media...like Time and Newsweek will play the game...then the local stations in Oakland, Chicago, and New York. Everyone in the media will be on media-welfare...by 2050. Amusingly enough...Matt Drudge Jr...will be running a site that makes 1000 percent profit a year...without any government contributions. And Rush Limbaugh Jr...will be coast to coast...with not a single dime of government sponsor money helping him. 60 Minutes will do a piece...wondering how Rush and Matt Jr make a profit without government assistance.
I’d be pretty suprised to hear Rush still on radio 43 years from now. He’d be more than 100.
