Is this another run of "capitalism is evil" which is the trendy internet position, which would be great, except that...is every single expression of capitalism evil, or is it just a great catchphrase when you're getting screwed over?
people distributing fanzines in ages of yore still charged printing and mailing costs even if they weren’t making a profit.
...and did they deserve to make a profit for being editors and publishers and did we not recognize that back in the day? (I feel that we did not, because editing and publishing are also work. BUT. I am in a minority position here.)
