^^Exactly, regarding your last paragraph. As a musician (whatever, thats probably all of us here, honestly) I'm baffled by any artist who could be worried right now. It's like the universe saw how spoiled artists had become and was tired of hearing people bitch about the old days and decided to throw us right back in the old days. After all, don't forget the old expression "Your art starts to suck once you're not poor and you're happy". That may not be 100% true, there's nothing wrong with being happy, but true character is born thru suffering and it looks like alot of douchebags are going to have the real world and a whole lotta character shoved up their ass pretty soon. Or at least, enevitabley.
It's like the whole country is experiencing the Pilot of Arrested Developement. Let's see how THIS story unfolds.
anyways, lots of ideas and feelings floating around, lots of new realities being set in place in this country...good things for artists. Simplest answer? The future of art is bright.
