| Sqrl said: The problem is two fold tho. Problem 1) To get work they have forced any writers to be part of their union or be shunned. This is a fundamentally flawed system as it gives them absolute power and prevents other people from having different opinions. This is essentially a monopoly on the workforce. Problem 2) Since you are either part of the guild or you're not a working writer you have to be part of the guild to be a writer. And then even when you disagree with their choices you are forced to go along with it. There has to be some way for a minority to exist. This is a frighteningly controlled system and in my opinion is a gross abuse of power. |
As I said before, I'm going to research this aspect of the question more so that I can have an informed opinion on it. As of right now, I have two people's uncited words on it, which I don't doubt is what you believe, I just need more evidence, and comprehensive information on both sides of the story.
