I think he said "if I only had the money I paid the lawyers..." ...on
protection, of course. I cite some other examples of people paying to win
lawsuits as their product dies out in the book, a sun-chair for example.

But since almost no product ever patented makes it to market, sheer
probability would suggest one steers clear of intellectual property rights.

And if you wish to study the natural law arguments AGAINST "intellectual
