IP, traditionally, is acceptable as a limited interference in the rights of others to encourage people to produce new stuff by making the exploitation of that new stuff relatively easy.

However, the corporatist tendency are also abusing the limits both by extensions in time (particularly copyright) and into other areas – methods patents, derivative works, personal use – just as society is becoming massively more open thanks to the digital revolution. This is leading to what will be intolerable tensions between the largest producers and everybody else.

I would be up for some extensions, personally. I can think it would be sensible to allow drugs patents to run from “first approved for commercial use” rather than “first filing”, just to try to right the regulatory skew that extensive trials periods have introduced for example.

…it is up to those who deny the claim to disprove it.

No, it is not. If you make a claim, it is up to you to demonstrate its veracity, not the sceptic who questions it.

What I don’t get is: Why does this lend you to a totally fictional, and incoherent set of nonsense legal theories, that have gotten its practitioners jailed?

The rest makes it clear you don’t like the EU. Fine. There are plenty of good reasons that do not delve into fantasist nonsense such as Lawful rebellion and Freeman on the land stuff. The entire concept of Lawful rebellion merely discredits goals of personal autonomy and freedom, by dressing it up in pathetic, pseudo-legal conspiracy theories.

My claim is that the LAW is being corrupted, the PROOF positive are the LAWS that are being made by those other than our elected government.

What other proof do you need?

DID you vote to pay Brussels multimillions of tax payers money annually to be a trading partner with the EU? ???

CAN you VOTE to become a member or not of the EU? ???

If you don’t get to vote is that entirely down to the government or the people? ???

Who is saying we cannot have a vote? ???

Is it in the statutes that such an ‘event’ is to be put to referendum? ???

Which LAW is ours and which LAW comes from a foreign land (Europe)? ???

I do not wish to insult you, I consider myself a respectful man, however to ignore the questions I ask is, in and of itself an insult.
These are my beliefs and as a libertarian you ‘should’ respect them. You think differently to me and I, as best I can have answered your question, however you ignore mine.
You are not doing the libertarian movement any good by supporting them with the stance you currently have.

Namaste, rev;

Thanks, guys. You are truly intellectuals.

Your Mum…

Perhaps you would prefer the citizens just revolt and use violence to end this oppression of their rights to live as free men ??
