Fascinating stuff, thank you for sharing!!
Given the two potential outcomes of how media cos will generate revenue under this tax, this doesn’t seem great idea for actual, ya know, people. Likelihood of cos raising rates rather than charging users seems low.
"Creative" is but one of the adjectives I would use. Firstly, this proposal seems to deny that people have full agency and are exercising free will in choosing such a means to spend their free time. Secondly, free media and service providers sell advertising because the users
themselves are not willing to pay. It is not some massive conspiracy - any provider that could sustain a paid model would vastly prefer it and use it. Finally, this proposal assumes that the state is somehow entitled to tax the entirety of a citzen's life, even -
Advertisers could not afford new rates. They earn nothing like minimum wage from people's attention. Real effect would be paywall for all media & drastically reduced consumption. No reason to think "productive" time would increase. People would find other entertainment.
That is pretty galaxy brain compared to the small brain idea of taxing entertainment goods for their perceived negative externalities
Sounds like a vice tax.
Wow. So the next big thing is taxing sleep because it‘s a waste if productivity.
It makes perfect sense, furthermore some of the saved citizenry time would be used in income generating activities, hence addional taxes to improve necessary government services.
