    In what world is it a bad thing for someone to get paid for their skills? That’s a bizarre spin to put on it.

    And yes, UBI should definitely happen, but we shouldn’t start painting the world with crap to do it.

      It’s fine to get paid for your skills, but from experience I can say that developing skills just to get paid is also rather soulless.

      Since, sure, I can bet there’re furry artists that love drawing sexy tigers to bits, but I can guarantee there’s a not-so-small percentage that would much rather draw something else, but the yiffing money is too good to pass up on.

      Being paid for your skills is service, not art. It can be art when your audience’s money isn’t the director.
