Copyright Law Has Got To Give Up

My Claim Is That We Should Focus On The Values Of Liberty... If There Is Not Government To Insist On Those Values, Then Who? ... The Single Unifying Force Should Be That We Govern Ourselves.

Freedom Is About Stopping The Past.

While Control Is Needed, And Perfectly Warranted, Our Bias Should Be Clear Up Front: Monopolies Are Not Justified By Theory; They Should Be Permitted Only When Justified By Facts. If There Is No Solid Basis For Extending A Certain Monopoly Protection, Then We Should Not Extend That Protection.

Some Blame The Drug Companies. I Don't. They Are Corporations. Their Managers Are Ordered By Law To Make Money For The Corporation. They Push A Certain Patent Policy Not Because Of Ideals,but Because It Is The Policy That Makes Them The Most Money. And It Only Makes Them The Most Money Because Of A Certain Corruption Within Our Political System-a Corruption The Drug Companies Are Certainly Not Responsible For. The Corruption Is Our Own Politicians' Failure Of Integrity.

Creativity And Innovation Always Builds On The Past. The Past Always Tries To Control The Creativity That Builds Upon It. Free Societies Enable The Future By Limiting This Power Of The Past. Ours Is Less And Less A Free Society.
