Artists tend to be romantics, but also control freaks.
it's romantic to be a revolutionary, so artists are by default revolutionaries.
revolutionaries are convinced they'l bring only freedom and goodness
so they can deftly rationalize anything they do legal or illegal
but what they bring 9 times out of 10 is "control"
of economic life because
a free commercial society seems on the surface so dizzyingly out of control.
