If not for monopoly rights (copyrights and patents), every technology we have today would've existed 100 years earlier, at least. We would've had communities in space and on the Moon and Mars TODAY if not for government-enforced monopoly rights. They say you cannot stop innovation. You probably heard that statement before, I bet. But have you paused for a moment to think how incredibly naive are these idiots who said that? They obviously never heard of patents and copyrights. How do you stop innovation? Simply buy the patent! If you are the owner of a tech monopoly and there's a rising technology that can totally disrupt your business model and dethrone you, simply buy the patent of that new tech and bury it. That's it. That's all it takes. Simply throw some of your money at the problem and suppress innovation along with it. So, yes, you most certainly CAN stop innovation and strangle it in its cradle thanks to monopoly rights like patents and copyrights. That's precisely what they're for and how they've been used since their inception. Just think of the hundreds of thousands of suppressed technologies that were stolen from humanity's progress because they would've put Big Oil or Apple or Google out of business. Patents and copyrights are monopoly rights. A patent is a legal protection for ONE company to be the ONLY producer of what would've otherwise been easily reverse-engineered by other people in a free market. There's absolutely NOTHING free-market about a patent or copyright. It's basically a government-protected privilege to ensure that ONE company gets filthy rich by making monopolistic profits without ever worrying about the competition. That's what a patent is, you idiots! For a working-class person to advocate for patents and copyrights, he/she must be insane! Patents only benefit the ruling class and the corporate oligarchy, not the working-class people who will be stuck with overpriced products like those sold ONLY by Apple. But the worst kinds of patents are medical patents and food patents. Patented food are GMOs, and they aren't meant to feed the world. They are intended to control the food supply. And that's why many fruits nowadays are seedless. And that's why conglomerates like PepsiCo are suing poor farmers in India for planting a potato variety that it patented! Patented medicine is another nightmare and a scam within a scam on top of another scam. How can Mexico get drugs that come from the U.S. and charge one-fifth of what we do? Contemplate this question, and perhaps you'll grow a few brain cells in the process. You can thank me later! We MUST Abolish copyrights and patents NOW to set innovation free. #ScarcityEconomics #IndustryConcentration #Opensource #Copyrights #Copyright #CopyrightInfringement #TheRightToCopy #Innovation #Patents #PatentLaw #Monopolies #Monopoly #CronyCapitalism #TechnologicalProgress #ScientificProgress #EconomicTyranny #FreeMarket Sources: https://is.gd/ad7bKX https://is.gd/LzMcl7 https://is.gd/pCyIFj https://is.gd/lrW57D https://is.gd/S5DmY2 https://is.gd/P61Bvn https://is.gd/gExYmf https://is.gd/q0Ghd0 https://is.gd/GDUKl5 https://is.gd/AzXYvy

No one in the right mind can reasonably convince anyone that technology isn't necessary for humanity and its progress. In every aspect of life, technology has made life easier and more convenient. Technology is meant to liberate us, not enslave us. The problem is the CENTRALIZATION of technology. That's the problem. Thanks to monopoly rights like patents and copyrights, a handful of individuals have become tech tyrants, and they now wield a monopoly over technology and science. All thanks to the centralized structure that you idiots allowed because you've been brainwashed at school into believing that patents and copyrights are a great thing for progress when they are cancer for progress. Thanks to copyrights and patents, technology and innovation are centralized into the hands of the wealthy few who now enjoy all the profits and benefits. This is the central problem. It's centralization. The centralization of ANYTHING is ALWAYS NOT in your favor. Have you heard the term "don't put all your eggs in one basket"? Whenever power or authority or industry is centralized in the hands of the few, you get tyranny and oppression. It's ALWAYS the outcome. The centralization of power and authority into the hands of the few is tyranny by definition. The only solution to this tyranny is the decentralization of everything. Decentralization of decision-making, decentralization of authority, decentralization of technology, and the decentralization of the economy. The abolishment of the capitalist economic tyranny is ONLY possible by abolishing monopoly rights (copyrights and patents). For all this to happen, obviously, the first thing that should happen is the decentralization of the monetary system. In other words, the first objective must be the abolishment of the Federal Reserve and other Zionist central banks around the globe. End the Fed. #Decentralize #DecentralizeEverything #EndTheFed #ScarcityEconomics #IndustryConcentration #Opensource #Copyrights #Copyright #CopyrightInfringement #TheRightToCopy #Innovation #Patents #PatentLaw #Monopolies #Monopoly #CronyCapitalism #TechnologicalProgress #ScientificProgress #Capital #Greed #Tyranny #EconomicTyranny #FreeMarket Sources: https://is.gd/LzMcl7 https://is.gd/pCyIFj https://is.gd/lrW57D https://is.gd/S5DmY2 https://is.gd/P61Bvn https://is.gd/gExYmf https://is.gd/q0Ghd0 https://is.gd/GDUKl5 https://is.gd/AzXYvy
