Or you get a little bit of money from everyone who buys it, forever.
That's absolutely absurd and goes against what copyright was founded on. Now if you had said "Or you get a little bit of money from everyone who buys it, for a reasonably limited time (definitely not a lifetime or for your children's children), and we will protect this work, but at some point it goes back to the public, from whence it came". Don't you get it? All works are inherently public domain, but the creator's get a little time to monopolize on it. This life + 90 is treachery at its finest.

Because whenever the government funds get doled about, everyone lines up to the trough, whether they actually need the stuff or not. Like right after 9/11, cities that were in no way threats on the same level as NYC all tried to get in on the newly allocated funds. It is government waste at its finest.
The one day you'd sell your soul for something, souls are a glut.
