Your comment seems to align with typical capitalist motives: focus on short term gains, ignore everything else.

>are you really going to want to start an account on that site? If I thought it would benefit me and was worth my time, then yes? Is the implication one shouldn't try to earn extra income because someone else earns more? >Your comment seems to align with typical capitalist motives: focus on short term gains, ignore everything else. That's somewhat of an ad hominem. Anyways I'm all ears if you have a superior evidence-based economic model, instead of selling utopia.

    Do you have sources or evidence that this linear payout system can work? Any businesses, platforms, or countries that have successfully used this type of model?

        Nope. But I'm also not the one claiming a new model I've invented will work and should replace the current system. Your claim would be more convincing if you could point to an existing business or platform that uses the linear payout successfully.

        Right, because its a brand new model that I created, one that has never existed, or even been imagined before: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Redistribution_of_income_and_wealth https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Redistribution_of_income_and_weal...

        Okay, but that's in the context of the state which can use its monopoly on violence to enforce such a redistribution. How might that work in private organizations? If you think governments should get involved, what do you think of the side effects? Such redistribution is effectively a tax on the top performers and a subsidy for the bottom performers. A popular saying is that "you get more of what you subsidize and less of what you tax". Why should we encourage more people into selling intimate pictures of themselves? Is that a policy that governments should really be pushing? You could argue onlyfan producers have some duty to their community or whatever, but they already pay income taxes. Why must they face additional redistribution compared to lawyers or programmers?
