> writing a blog post every once in a while will not provide meaningful income

Should people receive meaningful income for writing a blog post every once in a while?

I feel like that's the real question and not everyone agrees on the answer

> we would be better off with free content like on the internet of old

Well as someone who was there you used to need meaningful income to use the Internet of old. Nowadays everyone needs the Internet and it's a pretty big expense in most peoples' budget, and I think that's why so many people are willing to try something at it,

I figure if you just gave everyone meaningful income we could have that again
