By that logic, life itself can never be popular. Everyone in the world makes/has access to a non-zero amount of money, and where it goes is our collective human decision for how the world should operate. You're spending money righ

Not OP but I do something similar, because I know each ad I see costs someone $$$. This leads to odd behavior like making sure I let youtube ads play for their full duration and I'll usually click on sponsor links + their pages enough

At that point what keeps companies from leasing stuff instead of selling it? That approach sounds like the easiest way to avoid taxes ever, and it has the side effect of making ownership for poorer classes unnecessarily more difficult.

I always advocate a good hybrid approach; flex fiscal policy and aggressively tax bad behavior. Eg "Expected value removed from economy is $100m, govt. wants 20% of that". The incentive would push companies to keep infrastructure
