    I hate when they say paying the premium is a “solution”. It’s worse. That’s why nobody is doing it.

      I actually have a Premium subscription, but it’s kinda half assed journalism to suggest that as a solution.

        It costs money.

        Having money is better than not having money.

          Citizen, that sounds like communist anti-consumption talk.

          Now go back to working 60 hours a week so you can buy things to feel better about having to work 60 hours a week.

          I mean, I’d never buy anything by that logic alone.
