The problem vexing me most this week is the disequilibrium between the pure revenue music generates and the cost of making it, being trained to make/perform it.

I really want to solve this problem. It will require services and fans being re-socialized to pay properly.

It will also require a robust national arts policy that requires investment in music programs throughout the United States so that all kids can have an equal opportunity to develop their artistry.

Any national arts policy, in addition to investment and fixing pricing to reflect true value, must understand that music is also an important tool of economic development.

We are all small businesses in addition to being purveyors of culture.

We can bridge gaps and successfully heal, unite our disparate parts through music... we can bring folks together productively. I know it.
