      Small piece of advice, to help you, I am a small business owner too, what you said was wrong. We use our taxes to make money..... as a business owner, through legally investing, "our taxes make money". In turn, the government makes us spend our profits, to reinvest, eventually investing even more into our businesses, buying/ investing in equipment, the government/ IRS makes billions on taxes, that is how the tax system in the United States works... real easy.
      Hopefully you can use this advice to profit from, we all do it legally, show it to our CPA's, turn around and reinvest again, and again.... Legally... Or... "pay high corporate taxes"!!!!! So you can see, it's easier to reinvest, again, and again. It's the same thing Stephan, the Question Mark Guy, and every business owner does, invest our taxes, and ultimately, our taxes make money for us... Legally...

I remember my grandpa (who is the quintessential Blue Collar American man, retired construction worker and Korean War Vet who grows his own garden and is restoring a '79 US Mail Jeep and a bass boat from the '50s) would laugh and laugh and laugh everytime he'd show up. I don't think my grandpa took him to be a con but rather just too idealistic because nearly every time my grandpa would caution, "that's not the way it works in the real world. He's kind of a phony."

    Yeah it’s because the information is produced by the US government it is in the public domain. E.g. any footage shot by the US government can be used by other media (or youtubers) however they want with no copyright problems. I’m guessing it is the same with this information

    I had a friend that did stuff like this back in the 1990's. I always considered it a scam, not because the information was BS but because the info was freely available. You request the info (for Free) from the Government Publishing Office. Government documents cant be copyrighted so all you needed to do was change up the formatting a little, give it a good title, and sell it. He had 100's of them and charged $5 each. He made good money from it.
