Patents â Why They Exist, And Why They Possibly Shouldnât Exist
,----[ Quote ]
| Most software engineers donât agree. Richard
| Stallman, one of the truly elite software
| developers has spoken out many times about
| the dangers of software patents. Curiously
| those most in favor of software patents
| appear to be lawyers from the Patent Bar.

Patents â Why They Exist, And Why They Possibly Shouldnât Exist â Part Two
,----[ Quote ]
| One issue is that Americans think that their
| patent system is the be all and end all, and
| that everyone else should imitate them.
| Curiously a lot of Americans even believe
| that their Constitution requires that a
| patent system exist, due to a misreading of
| it.

Monsanto also tried to bring its patented genetic carcinogens to Canada, but didn't
manage to corrupt the officials.
Corporate takeover videos
,----[ Quote ]
| One of the greatest concerns about genetic
| engineering is the way in which it
| facilitates the corporate takeover of the
| food supply. These videos show how GM crops
| are removing the ability of farmers to
| freely use their own seeds or grow food in
| the way they choose.
