Some May Not Like The Constitution's Requirements,

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.

The Legal System Doesn't Work. Or More Accurately, It Doesn't Work For Anyone Except Those With The Most Resources. Not Because The System Is Corrupt. I Don't Think Our Legal System (at The Federal Level, At Least) Is At All Corrupt. I Mean Simply Because The Costs Of Our Legal System Are So Astonishingly High That Justice Can Practically Never Be Done.

There Are A Lot Of People Who Say We Need To Cut The Amount Of Money That's Spent In Politics. I'm Not Sure That I Agree. But I Am Sure That If You Were Talking About Cutting The Amount Of Money Spent In Politics, The Media Would Have A Strong Interest In Opposing You, Because They Make An Enormous Amount Of Money From Political Advertisements.

I Think The Reality Is That Copyright Law Has For A Very Long Time Been A Tiny Little Part Of American Jurisprudence, Far Removed From Traditional First Amendment Jurisprudence, And That Made Sense Before The Internet. Now There Is An Unavoidable Link Between First Amendment Interests And The Scope Of Copyright Law. The Legal System Is Recognizing For The First Time The Extraordinary Expanse Of Copyright Regulation And Its Regulation Of Ordinary Free-speech Activities.
