As such, what you&#039;ve claimed here is... bullshit.
In NO CASE has anyone ever &#039;performed for decades before anyone even wants to work with you&#039;. Don&#039;t talk crap.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[actually, patents are a monopoly too. to overcome some of that, there are FRAND terms, to avoid the monopoly becoming too great.

However, it IS a monopoly. Check the history of steam engines for a classic tale. Under Stephenson&#039;s patent term steam engines stagnated. it wasn&#039;t until hte monopoly expired that real progress was made.
Likewise with cinema. Edison&#039;s company held the patents and he was very restrictive. That led a bunch to try and move west to avoid paying the licensing and ignore hte monopoly. What hapened to them.. oh yeah, they got to a place called Hollywood and set up shop, as the patent term was ending.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What happens to the people, not the imaginary &quot;institutions,&quot; but the people whose livelihood is pushing The People around, if they throw hundreds, thousands, even hundreds of thousands of The People out of their homes to avoid angering the bankers? What happens if they loot the savings of ten, a hundred, a thousand times as many to avoid angering the bankers?

What happens to the people, not the imaginary &quot;institutions,&quot; but the people whose livelihood is pushing The People around, if they refuse to throw hundreds, thousands, even hundreds of thousands of The People out of their homes and anger the bankers? What happens if they refuse to loot the savings of ten, a hundred, a thousand times as many and anger the bankers?

It&#039;s not hard™.

Oh, wait, maybe you were asking:
What happens if, instead of trying to actively aid the bankers against The People, the people whose livelihood is pushing The People around were to actively attack the bankers?

Here, you need the hospital strength, double dose. It&#039;s not hard™, at all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People are down-voting my comments here but without any good reply on this point.


The argument you put forward for calling this a monopoly could be used for almost any industry. For example, mobile phones are covered under trademark and patent law, so nobody can produce and sell phones under the name iPhone except Apple. Nobody says that there&#039;s a monopoly on mobile phones. There are several companies that produce phones and there is competition. It&#039;s not a monopoly. I think you&#039;re using the word incorrectly.]]></description>
