Where I take issue is the disrespect shown to fundamental property rights. Perhaps you don’t think there should be laws regarding such things but the simple reality is that there are. Property rights are a fundamental component of our Constitution, the very structure that permits you to the freedom to work with others to offer alternative products, services and solutions. As I noted, those who participate are free to forego compensation for their work. However, what they are not free to do is to impose this on the work product of others. Perhaps you want to realize all of what you write and do into the public domain. That is your free choice. However, perhaps I do not want to do so and I expect compensation for the use of what I created, intellectually or otherwise. That too is my right. If you want to try to make my contribution superfluous in the market that takes us back to the initial point of working in the capitalist system to offer an alternative. But to ignore my property rights and take or benefit from my work is, quite simply, theft. And protecting my rights from being subverted by others is a valid and proper function of a LIMITED government.
