Interesting report on a controversial topic. As an artist, one has a couple of routes: keep the day job hustle and budget time accordingly to allow room for art, or shoot for the stars with a laser like focus for financial returns. It's hard to express the shame that comes from some fellow artists for daring to expect some kind of financial reward other than being signed to a TV Show. Yet there are enough that recognize we just want to continue creating. Something like a guaranteed income would allow dedicated artists, especially improvisers to not only continue creating, but also free them up to share their art with others who are looking for it via marketing or simply producing more shows, stories, pages, pictures, music, videos, etc... Thank you for sharing @luzcypher.

It would be a great thing for an artist to have for sure. Hey, if you're an artist you've got to check this woman out. She gives her music away for free and people still pay her. Amazing story. https://steemit.com/music/@luzcypher/turning-your-audience-into-supporting-fans-her-music-is-free-but-fans-paid-it-forward-to-the-tune-of-usd1-2-million
