Welfare Queens Sue Google Over IPR

I wish they would not say that "authors" are suing google, because this "author" certainly is not.  There are some welfare queens, who by virtue of typing some words on a piece of paper, believe that the world owes them an income.  They are suing google.

These writers want to gain, or have gained,  exceptional wealth through our intellectual property rights system.  They want more.  They want it all.

Well, who doesn't?  The problem is for the system to work that gives them exceptional wealth, you and I must pay for the enforcement of the regime that makes them exceptionally wealthy.  That is capitalism.

Ninety percent of marketing is listening to your customer base and ever better meeting their needs.  The reason we have not had a Shakespeare in the last century or so is because we've had intellectual property rights.  Why get better if you are guaranteed fantastic amounts for being merely better than others?

These writers do not need intellectual property rights for self-actualization, they need to learn marketing or hire someone to help.

I would hate to see google lose and me have to pay for advertising my book, which google does for free.

Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
