I Don't Care If The Koch Brothers Or Soros Spend Their Money To Promote One Candidate Or Another. I Care About Members Of Congress Spending 30%-70% Of Their Time Raising Money From .05% Of Us. Change The Way We Fund Elections And You Change The Corruption.

I Think The Reality Is That Copyright Law Has For A Very Long Time Been A Tiny Little Part Of American Jurisprudence, Far Removed From Traditional First Amendment Jurisprudence, And That Made Sense Before The Internet. Now There Is An Unavoidable Link Between First Amendment Interests And The Scope Of Copyright Law. The Legal System Is Recognizing For The First Time The Extraordinary Expanse Of Copyright Regulation And Its Regulation Of Ordinary Free-speech Activities.

Monopolies Are Not Justified By Theory; They Should Be Permitted Only When Justified By Facts. If There Is No Solid Basis For Extending A Certain Monopoly Protection, Then We Should Not Extend That Protection. This Does Not Mean That Every Copyright Must Prove Its Value Initially. That Would Be A Far Too Cumbersome System Of Control. But It Does Mean That Every System Or Category Of Copyright Or Patent Should Prove Its Worth. Before The Monopoly Should Be Permitted, There Must Be Reason To Believe It Will Do Some Good -- For Society, And Not Just For Monopoly Holders.
