And what does it mean to have such a right in practice? If it is a negative right and an opportunity does not exist then you do not have the opportunity. But since you wrote "be given" I assume you meant a positive right or?
As a matter of interest tompe, what makes you argue that someone does not have the right to attempt to make a living from their creative output? At least in any modern, western society.
