I've begrudgingly started paying for economist and FT.

And after that discovered that the feature I use the most isn't even subscriber only - their podcasts.

Paying for journalism is a good thing. I too have subscriptions that I don’t strictly need.

Argh, surely if we all agree that paying for journalism is a good thing, we should do what we normally do for such things - take it from taxes?

Have a separate tax and an entity completely independent from the government with its own elections.
