The people in the data centers and the engineers and scientists don't work for free. That's what you consider "paying again"?

When should we all expect to receive our check for the content we contributed to Stack Exchange?

Giving helpful answers for free is one thing, then having someone else profit off your contributions, in this way, is another.
