That's what happens when people's source of income disappears. And is replaced by.
Job Title McDonald's Salary

Yes work 12 hours a day at less than half the living wage to make a corporation rich and serve cheap shit. Or charge $1 more to raise wages and make it a living wage.

Well Paul, for me personally I have a 9 to 5 to fall back on. It pays very well and I enjoy it. I'll work it regardless of how much webcam income I receive. And there's been times that I've earned
way more with webcams than I ever did working the 9 to 5.
But there's always peaks and valleys when it comes to webcams. Its good to diversify income.
If and when webcam sites decide they have enough traffic/income without affiliates (does any big earner ever feel they're earning enough?) I'm ready to adapt when needed.
As for consumer income, it concerns me. My job, for example, has a lot of positions open. We hired 40 people the other day. Of those, only 4 passed the piss test (drug test). And of those, only 2 showed up for work. Idk wtf is going on with American workers. Drug abuse seems to be more rampant than its ever been, in nearly all walks of life. But that's good for shitholes like McDonalds. They'll hire anybody and don't drug test people. And they're not going to pay their workers a dime more than they're required to.
But I'll feel there will always, in some form, be a market for basic human desires. Sex being a powerful one. Everyone's money, regardless of income, eventually trickles out of their wallets. Streams flow into rivers. Rivers into oceans. Oceans have whales. I've caught a few of them.
