| Message | I concur. If you prohibit patents you stifle vital invention. Why invent something, when it becomes the state's property to utilize and profit from? You're brain came-up with the idea, why does the king...'er legislature get a cut? |

| Message | Protecting personal property rights is, again, NOT hypocrisy. The MLP are not anarchists. We believe in law and limited government. Sorry, if you'd prefer people's individual creations automatically belong to the government just because YOUR PARTY says so. That's bunk! If you want an absolute monarchy approach to property, just come-out in favor of feudalism and save us all a little time. |
