Ouch. That’s direct. You can’t be that direct, Hugh. You need politicks.
A — everybody here makes money
B — everybody here gets bread and games
what i like best is here is that the model doesn’t consider customers at all. much like walled gardens in other words
However famous Henry Miller was, you are forgetting Big Sur’s really famous resident: Hunter S. Thompson.
I have an idea for a cartoon…
Get your hands off my walled garden!
It would be great as a t-shirt or biz card.
The thing that never ceases to amaze me is that walled gardens just won’t go away.
They *do* ignore the consumer so I find it all the more surprising that they keep being built and funded.
Of course some walled gardens don’t grow as well as you thought when you went in. .. and often some others prefer the wide-open spaces to grow their fine plants. The really good creators will grow their gardens without a wall and hope the world will beat a path to their ‘door’.
It’s not just money but also a question of control. If you let the market place decide, who knows what may happen.
