Just for the record...
... Chuck DID make money. He sold books of his plays. He had a giant mansion in the LA hills. He and his family had health insurance. No one else did.
Lots of people had major mental issues. They were not encouraged to seek professional help. I know this because my mother was the "personnel" aka therapist for a few years. She had no training. But she dealt with people having depression suicide etc.
My parents had outside jobs in order to make ends meet. We cleaned the toilets at the headquarters. We slept on the floor. We lived in other people's houses. We had no health insurance.
The time involved was insane, though Even at the world headquarters, after working a regular work week, everyone was expected to attend two nights week of "rehearsal" to listen to chuck and work on plays - and then there were weekend demands.
And despite all this autonomy Scott speaks of, when it came down to it, Chuck was the ultimate authority over what happened to you.
