Sounds like you don't believe even yourself to that ideologia. I certainly don't before proven otherwise. Oh it sounds nice and some of it even starts making sense (to all: run before it gets you too), but the part of paying mortages with donations is something that I won't be agreeing any time soon. That still leads to the assumption, that most of those who now make their living out of the writing, wouldn't be doing so in the utopia. Which would lead probably to the decrase in the overall quality.

Writing should be fun, not some bloody business decision.

Should and probably sometimes is, even on the traditional money making segment. But work cannot always be walking with flowers.
