There's one thing that's never talked about and that's how much YouTube pays their content creators. Content creators are the people who make the videos. I know the pay is based off the amount of subscribers they have and the amount of thumbs up they get per video, but I haven't figured out yet if comments generate revenue too. At some point they quit their jobs and go YouTube full time. They are obviously getting paid way more from YouTube than what they were ever getting paid from their employer. How it remains such a secret is amazing. YouTube probably tells them if they utter one word about their pay they'll have their channel evaporated.
I have a question for anybody willing to answer. In California there is a ban on the sale of small gasoline powered engines. If I go to STIHL's website and punch in my zip code, it says not available for sale in California. I can go to any of the local ACE hardware stores and buy gasoline powered STIHL products. I can also go to any of the local mower shops and buy gasoline powered equipment. If I go to any of the local Home Depot or Lowe's stores, the only equipment they stock in the store is electric. Also online nothing is available from Home Depot or Lowe's. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining. I couldn't care less about Home Depot or Lowe's and their choice to roll over for the government. I posed the same question to the local mower shop. I asked them why is it they can get gasoline powered equipment but Home Depot or Lowe's can't? The simple answer was because the manufacturer's keep sending them the products if they ask for it.
Tax cuts? How about no tax? Everything was paid for by tariffs before the 16th amendment happened.
