I shed no tears for the so-called “entertainment industry”. It produces nothing of lasting instinsic value and is grossly over-compensated for what it does produce.
Google, the Internet, and modern technology have brought about a much-needed change to that unsustainable business model.
Should Google be taxed for that? Perhaps. But good luck trying.
Sorry, will have to disagree with you there. A tiny tiny fraction of movies/shows do have lasting value. They are the classics and they will live forever. But again, it's a very small fraction of the junk that comes out of the industry. And also, it's people who decide what has value to them.
As for over compensation, there is no such thing in a free society. In a capitalist system wealth is acquired, not given, and you are free to acquire as much of it as you want provided people are giving it to you of their free will. But you could say that govt is vastly over compensated for what it does, which is mostly nothing.
