They're still paid a lot less than Apple employees, and considering that they are getting fewer and fewer opportunities for exposure outside of Apple/Google/Facebook ecosystems, it doesn't seem fair that they should be subject to insane taxes by these mega-corps, far more than the government would tax them.
Even consider a tech geek, gets $1M a year from a hot app, 30% goes to Apple, 37% of what's left goes to federal taxes, 13% goes to California taxes, there's hardly anything left, do we even own our money anymore?
And then lose another 10% of what's left to sales tax when you try to actually spend any of it ... god damn.
