So let's say I mortgage my house, cash in my bank accounts and
pour all that money into an idea for a motor that runs on water
and gets 400 miles to the gallon.
I finally get the design right after 10 years of work and near
bankruptcy and market it to the automobile manufacturers.
Only they are not interested because they took my prototype
apart, copied it and are now making their own version of the
engine.
You think that is fair?
I believe that unless I choose to give my work away, and I do
quite often by doing volunteer work, I have a right to charge for
my work, protect my work via the copyright and or patent system
and I have the right to legally prosecute anyone who violates
those laws of protection.
You don't agree with that?
