Does this mean their public radio stations don't constantly have to beg listeners to donate money?

Cause public broadcasting services are a necessity in a modern democracy and the fact they constantly have to ask me for a few bucks is sad

I don't consume media. I don't own a TV. Streaming is for the birds. I wrap all my antennas in lead sheathing to keep out the radios, and I do my pipes as well in case some jokester sets up a crystal fm.

Back when I used to go outside, sometimes I'd be driving and looking out the side windows. Well the long panning view made me think of the intro to a city cop show or something- that's when I closed my eyes and lost my license.
At least I don't pay TV taxes anymore because I don't have an income.

did you know the reason they call them "spoilers" for tv shows are because your brain and your thoughts will be spoiled, if you hear about tv or tv programming at all

there's a law in the United States where you literally have to pay a percentage of the value of your property to support local schools even if you don't have a child

and tv is exactly as valuable as schools so you're absolutely right

you benefit from having an educated society, and little taxes like that are all chunks of it. i hate when libertarian isolationists are like 'i don't benefit form public education!! nor roads!! i don't drive!' but like, not having 250 million completely ignorant of the world roving cannibals tearing up your roadless wasteland is beneficial to your life in ways you don't even realize
I don't think bullying me into giving an institution 500€ for a service I do not use is beneficial to my life

we also have forced healthcare over here. it's just great to be obligated by law to spend a large sum of money monthly that you can't afford for services you do not need.

it improves the lives of some people around you, in turn making your life more pleasant, safer, secure, and economically stable! you certainly benefit! the exact same is true of healthcare: having a fully functional healthcare system means less people falling through the cracks, so you benefit (more healthy customers to use your business, more healthy workers if you're a business owner, in general its far more expensive to have a sick person than to keep people healthy for a society)
its just how like, its cheaper for the government to buy homeless people houses instead of pay the costs of having them on the street.
so what you're saying is, time to start a business
