Pay is not everything in life, but it does buy things like paint and canvases.

And I really have to question a self-proclaimed professional artist saying, again, that artists do not deserve to be paid for their work.

No, they don't.

Work has to have value.

Some work - some art - has value. Some does not.

Sometimes you spend money and buy lumber and build a chair and you can sell it because it is worth something to someone. Sometimes it's shit and goes in the trash.

Just because you made a chair doesn't mean you get money.

This thread is incredibly disconnected to the point where it seems to be invaded by hobby artists that think too highly of themselves.

"Deserve" - clearly you don't understand the issue at hand if you're using definitions like this. There's no "deserve" in art.
