18. You obviously aren't paying attention...
Edited on Mon Apr-19-04 07:22 PM by w13rd0
...your "logic" is the same kind of thinking that resulted in that piece of shit USA PATRIOT act. It's not "I want it free", it's "quit establishing a corporate monopoly on creativity". How the heck can you expect R&D to actually accomplish things if you have to start out with the wheel everytime because Disney has everything else under copyright? Or heck, let's discuss the pharmacuetical industry. It amazes me when those on the right and left seem to have these completely seperated rules of logic they use to decide right and wrong on different issues. Democrats can complain about undue corporate influence from the oil industry, but copyright lobbyists they just love. Is it just a matter of whose name is on the check?

Oh yeah, furthermore, I OBJECT TO GOVERNMENT SPYWARE ON MY COMPUTER. What the hell is so hard to understand about that? A camera in your bathroom, a chip in your computer. How much nannydom do you need to make you feel all warm and fuzzy?
