Public funded news is a terrible idea because it's too easy to become corrupted by politics. This makes it easier for Netflix to raise prices, but it is what the people seem to want. Otherwise I guess we'll find out at the elections next year.

This argument is illogical. Netflix does not carry news, so how is that affected one way or another by public funded news?

This “idea” has been implemented for decades around the world with lots of success.
