Operating costs are AN issue but certainly not THE issue.
Martian, you and I are cut from the same cloth. Cyn and I had a discussion yesterday about exactly this topic. I find it very hard to write an effective OP. My point is either far too narrow or far too broad to generate much discussion (put aside "far too boring" for a moment). I do, however, do fairly well at responding to folks. And I think that there's room at TFP (or whatever evolves from it) for both original posters and responders. It just seems at the moment that we're a community of responders more than anything else. And that needs to change or there won't be anything to respond to.
