Are you sure? Since you don't want authors to be able to make a living from writing, the only available alternative is that they write in their spare time. And best is subjective, but not totally so.

Quote:
If this spare time is so valuable, and more of it results in more worthwhile art, why are we not devoting more resources to create more spare time? I would love to be able to wake up and say, "Well, looks like all my time is spare today, I think I will create."
We have that already. We get that buy paying for books. That gives authors the free time to write.

Davinci's work was his art.
Yes, but you miss the point. He was able to create because he didn't have to have a day job.
