Agree the focus should be away from the "Get Rich Quick crap" and I also like that you make it quite clear that not everyone is going to be a successful blogger, but the system is open for everyone to try. Very nice comment!
Unfortunately it doesn't offer the masses anything they want. The masses aren't that interested in reading blogs out-of-context. They read blogs in the context of that author being important to them in some content, e.g. as author of the s/w they are using or the music they are listening to. And they don't really care if the author is getting paid, unless they've developed that close contextual relationship. And often that context is already paying the author (which can mean no advertising as well).
