Spend their money that they hoard?
Art should not be produced for profit, because it stops being art. Ideally we would subsidize artists, or better yet provide for everyone's needs and let them make art in their free time. Forcing us to watch corporate propaganda about fucking dishwasher detergent ain't it.
So call the shareholders and ask them to pay back the dividends that they've received over the years, to fund the YouTube infrastructure? That begs the question, what do we do when that money runs out?
I imagine society will collapse from climate change before Google runs out of cash.
Society will not collapse from climate change if all the businesses start giving away their money.
Well then great... But also that's nonsensical.
