"To live even in relative poverty deprives of you new ideas; it deprives
you of the tools and education you need to escape. In the most severe
cases, it locks you out of society—out of voting, out of socializing,
and out of connecting with others."
I'm sympathetic to creators who are also struggling and want to get
paid, but I think that locking the poor out of our shared culture is
also problematic.
