But how else can you describe the situation? The real problem in my
opinion is the corruption caused by money in Politics. If you want to get
elected, it costs. Once elected you owe a debt to those who backed
you.
In the United States this means the system has evolved into a
version of
"Corporate Fascism" where the money has given industry a private
doorway into the Legislative Branch. I'm not saying all politicians are
corrupt by choice. Some are, most aren't and would be horrified at the
thought.
But the message that they hear tends to be limited to what
the large donors
are saying, because the large donors have more access than the
general
public.
IPKat did a poll on the US IP system, and the results
would have freaked
Kappos, ex-head of the USPTO. Too bad no one has asked for
his
comments on it.
We don't envy Americans their IP
System
