....But when it comes to art, I mean art, it hurts the artist thats trying to make a living...

It's funny to me how well people use the word "art" to their advantage, weather they're trying to sell an idea or an object. I mean, that's the only reason the word really exists isn't it? So people can use it to their advantage? Are you a businessman or an artist? There have been lots of famous artists(probably more famous then anyone on this website will ever be) who had nothing to show for their lifes work when they died other then a bunch of people thinking their art sucked. Does that make their stuff any less art? Businessmen and salesmen throw around the word art for reasons that usually have little to do with anything other then making money or making themselves feel like they're better then other people. Like how you use the word art to make your stuff seem like it's better then the stuff a guy in china might make. Not that it isn't better in some way, but is his stuff any less "art" just because he gets paid less to make it?
