A lot of people will spend $30 at a coffee shop in a week. Maybe $150 in one month.

I think $15 for a whole month of entertainment, tutorials, and useful content and to pay the people who create the videos is worth it.

You also have to account for whatever awful thing Google is likely to do with your $15.

Or routing it to support work for countries with profitable contracts, but questionable dedication to human rights.

Or lowering the price at which you can buy an election outcome.
