cuz that's exactly what most people want..
they are bound to their worldview.. and don't want to 'know thyself' or anything around them
so they crave for media filling the spot to confirm their confirmation bias and projections...

otherwise they would be forced to evolve, work on themselves and the world around them.. forced to learn to know thyself and the world.

but they don't want that
and therefore it's logical to force everyone to pay for indoctrination :)
