Yes, Christopher, I’m sure that “many people don’t care about ‘financial benefit’ and will advance the
sciences and other things just because they feel it is the right thing
to do.” However, the rest of us still have to provide for ourselves and our families, and so rely on the “financial benefit” of our wares. Selfish bastards that we are.

Actually, the author seems to have a better clue.

The property rights which copyright abolishes or circumvents are not.

Couldn’t agree with you more, MLP.

Kidwell, that should be left to the artist/author (which it currently is), not the government.

I think you misunderstood. Because you said the same thing as the article albeit different words.

I’m sorry but “…the party of the rich.” is not true and is simply an outdated catch phrase used by people that fall for propaganda. The Republicans have a false reputation as the rich big business party but the Democrats have actually taken over that position ever since Clinton was in office. Billionaire democrats far outnumber middle income republicans. The GOP is supposed to be about freedom and small government but they are just as corrupt as the democrats when it comes to lobbyists. Don’t kid yourself about which party stands for what.

I am a republican, or more accurately anti-Obama. I am totally against his agenda, and all of the political games that are played out. He has a lot of blood on his hands, and the U.S. is split and headed for another civil war if he continues acting as he does. He does not care about anyone else losing money, as long as he gets his pay day. The U.S. government is completely corrupt at its core. I’m proud of the people of my country as a whole, and totally ashamed of the government in power.

The pharmaceutical industry is just full of shit. That’s it that’s all. If they can prescribe 10 pills to you instead of 1 they will. If they can make 1 pill that replaces those 10 pills, they won’t. If you have cancer, they’ll make sure not to give you the cure because it’s not profitable although it pretty much exists. If they can sell you a pill because you’re on your deathbed and they want to stretch the last bit of life out of you even if you’re suffering they will. Why is it not ethical to end your life if all you do is suffer greatly? Because the goverment wants you to stay alive so they can share the profit with pharmaceutical companies and stretch out your miserable life for as long as they possibly can with pills. If they can carelessly give drugs to children and screw up the upcoming generations, they will as long as it’s profitable.

To top it off, let’s say you actually did need to take meds. Then why is it acceptable to have knock off brands of those pills? They talk about dosage and ridiculous shit while 1 pill can have 50 different brands so why the fuck even bother?

And let’s not even start about patents, the pharmaceutical industry is full of patents that deny life saving drugs to poorer countries. At least pirates do not kill anyone.
