I am so sick of the stigma that artists don't make money! It's becoming less and less accurate, though, so for artists this is beneficial. The people making these claims have clearly never hired an artist, got a tattoo, or have been to a gallery.

Its not only in art. A lot of creative jobs are very poorly payed this days.
Yes, I think for the amount of pressure put on designers to brainstorm creative and get it done ASAP, the positions should be paid more. Art is usually a freedom of expression form and forcing that can cause the person to feel pressured. They may not perform as well as they could un-pressured.
That's true. I'm unsure how much tattoo artists make, but I do personally know a few well connected artist who make a ton of money from gallery opportunities as well as selling their art as prints online. So there is a remarkable amount of money out here to be made.
