Why shouldn't I be forced to pay a levy on my internet to be used to support Canadian culture?  Because if an artist is good enough, talented enough, the world will beat a path to their door.  His or her career will be well paid.  

But the tax money doesn't go to the talented - they don't need it.  It goes to the mediocre, the shiftless, to those who are determined to stay out of work by playing their guitar.

As far as I'm concerned, if you don't have the talent to succeed, don't come begging from government to support you because you refuse to get a real job simply because you'd still rather be an, "artist."
