    So what you’re suggesting is the artists should make a set income, determined by the legislature.

    And then create lots of free art that isn’t copyrighted.

    So that a corporation can come along, take their art, and use it compared with their superior distribution and marketing to make more profit off of it than the artist ever could, without paying them.

    Sounds like a flawless system.

      If the artist has their needs met then yes, absolutely fantastic. Works better than our current system where most artists make copywrited art for their corporate overlords abd can get laid off whenever new tech roles around that makes them obsolete, and now the corporation owns their art AND they have no house
