So you are saying that the textual needs of some need to be subsidized?
No, absolutely not. There is no "textual need". I already stated that even if someone were to assume there is a "textual need" (which I do not assume), it could be fulfilled via the multitude of works in the public domain. There's more there than anyone could ever possibly read in their lifetime. If they want access to the latest and greatest however, then they should be willing to pay. It's not a matter of the rich keeping the poor down. It's a matter of you wanting to freeload off society. No matter how you try to rationalize it, or what sort of sophistic, specious, and pseudo-philosophical crap you use to try to justify it; you just don't want to pay for entertainment.

Bakery Blues

If the free sample intrigues you, I do hope you purchase the story (15K words) but I can send you a copy in epub if you like, just send me a PM.
