WTF rich people?
- just because somebody is rich it does not mean that they should be forced by the government (and thus guns and prisons) to pay for your life. You can buy your own goddamn contraceptives and as to 'welfare kids', there are private charities for that and welfare shouldn't exist in the first place.

Why shouldn't I take my Constitutional right to patent an invention?
- and that is the actual problem, isn't it?
Government making it a Constitutional entitlement to protect whatever it is you want protected. Why not a McDonalds having Constitutional entitlement to prevent competition from opening another fast food place within 10 miles of each of their stores?
This is the same thing: what you do in your life and on your time is none of government's business in any way, you shouldn't be attacked by government and you shouldn't be given any entitlements by it either. I guess whoever managed to stick that particular item into the USA Constitution had interest in patents but not in fast food stores.

The patent system is supposed to create that "public notice" on its own, but it's sorely lacking. Patents today are written in legalese that can only be interpreted by a select tribe of professionals, and Microsoft benefits by keeping lists like this secret.
- isn't that something.
Patents are a system of government enforcements that provide monopoly over something to a patent holder, however to understand what this 'something' is you need to read through millions of patents and you need to understand that insane language that they are written in.
How is it possible to assert that people are infringing on patents at all if the patents are unreadable in the first place? If the patents are written in a coded language and there are millions of patents, who in their right mind (except for government officials) could ever believe that companies that end up using something that is covered by these patents are infringing rather than simply working out the details of what they need for their product to be built on their own?
All of these and more is why I am ever so firmly against all government involvement in the patent and copyright schemes in the first place.
I disagree with your assessment that women cannot win, I think men cannot win in the society where women are given all sorts of entitlements and men are forced into obligations.
Welfare state is a single mother state and men are the slaves in that system.
Yeah, good luck with your ideas about what you want to get. This is INFLATION, you are getting LESS AND LESS for the same money, because things are more and more expensive in your currency and you salary is not going up, because the inflation is created by the government money printing operation and has nothing to do with any 'productivity'. The reality is that USA consumers cannot afford anything, they can't afford 'live persons' on the phone, they are not producing enough to offset the enormous 500 Billion USD / year trade deficit and given that, every service job ends up being a net drain on the economy, not a gain. You have no manufacturing and no real exports given that staggering trade deficit number, so you can't pay for services, because paying for services requires surplus in production that can be shifted to the service workers, but there is a deficit in production, so nobody can have anything.
This is what 'consumer based economy' looks like.
Incorrect, the opposite of central government (monopoly on violence and slavery) is not anarchy, it is individual freedom, and in the global capitalist economy where the money is made not by plundering one another but by creating new businesses that provide products and services and compete for every pair of eyes, every person on the planet, is the potential customer. Where the entire world is your potential customer and the number of your customers is directly linked to the health of your income generating business, you do not create slavery, you prefer society as free from slavery as possible.
Beyond that, the attitudes changed and capitalist industrial economy has conclusively proven that slavery is a very inefficient mode of generating income. Non-specialised work force, whose only incentive to work is based on fear of punishment is not a productive work force.
As I said (before
"Troll" is NOT the same as "I have a different opinion".
- actually that is exactly what 'troll' means here.
I don't think you understand what "government employee" means. The vast majority of those 300,000 people worked at private companies that were completing government contracts related to the space program.
- I don't know about the GP, but I am perfectly aware of what a 'government employee' is and all forms of government need to be shut down, so this type of 'government employment' goes the way of the Dodo bird.
I just replied to a 'government employee' here, my position is of-course very straightforward: State needs to die. The State power, the monopoly on violence needs to die.
We must not allow a monopoly on violence to be handed over to anybody, especially those, who would wield it with an air of 'lawfulness' and 'legitimacy'.
All government employment is force of evil, because the real question must not be: "which form of evil I want above me, the red, the blue, the green, the yellow, the whatever", no!
The real question is: WHAT IS VIRTUE? And virtue is in non-initiation of violence and that is the exact opposite of what government is.
Right, and right now it is not software that defines networking?
So right now hardware defines some networking components, with some software embedded and this will do what, define hardware that can run any software to do anything on anything? How is that different from a general purpose computer and how will the software know about hardware components without some software inside those components?
Will software replace cables, switches, hubs, routers? Will software float through software ether powered by software?
Will software replace software? Will it be softer software? Will they put software inside software so we can software while we software?

Smart guns, carbon fiber everywhere, software + hardware being replaced by software. The future is
Wrong, gov't brainwashed zombie, you have ALL rights, gov't has LIMITED authority to deny you SOME of your rights under very LIMITED conditions, like a court order.
A right is protection against unauthorized and illegal gov't action, nothing else and by default all gov't actions are unauthorized and illegal.
Taking away rights started with the Sherman's act being used against Standard Oil over 100 years ago now, the people didn't care, they always hated the wealthy, nobody cares when some wealthy people lose their rights and lose their property.
Taking away property continued with the introduction of the IRS, nobody cared, because the original concept was supposedly to remove duties and import and alcohol taxes and instead to implement an income tax on the top 2% of the earners, and the original highest tax was 7%. Nobody cared, because people hate the wealthy and they also hate paying taxes. In any case, normally people define 'wealthy' being anybody who has more money then they do (so you ask a guy that makes 20K, he sees anybody making 40K+ as wealthy, a 40K guy sees a 70K guy as wealthy, 70K guy sees 120K guy as wealthy, 120K guy sees 150K guy as wealthy, 150K guy sees 200K guy as wealthy, 200K guy sees 400K guy as wealthy, 400K guy sees 700K guy as wealthy, etc.etc.)
They introduced the Fed in 1913 (same year as the IRS), in 1917 they gave the Fed the power to print money to buy bad US gov't debt (bonds). So people didn't care, I mean who cares, the gov't did that rather than raising more taxes to grow, and the people that got screwed were those with more savings, and everybody hates the wealthy. Well, today the real rate of inflation is north of 10% and the prices are only slightly rising because the inflation is exported to those '3rd world nations' that end up working for worthless USD and exporting their actual goods they produce to the USA. (This will stop soon.)
They steal people's property all the time, they created entire classes of poor people by introducing the minimum wage to destroy competition by the blacks to the unions back in the thirties. Before that time the black unemployment was lower than white unemployment and many other statistics were going really well for the blacks. Well, then they started 'fighting poverty', picture time.
Taking away property is long standing government tradition. From 'anti-trust' to income taxes to printing money (inflation) to payroll taxes and SS and Medicare and FDIC and every department and exists, even the latest nonsense with the Nevada ranch, it's all one big happy Mafia family, that's what the government is.
You are the property and they are the owners. This is modern day democratically created and maintained slavery.
Wrong, the real solution is to remove all government regulations from business and to get rid of all so called 'public property', so that all property is private and stop interfering with money and with people trying to build new businesses.
Nobody paid any taxes when the top marginal tax rate in USA was over 90%, nobody will pay the 70% tax either.
Deflation in Japan looked marvelously, unfortunately the government of Japan prevented the prices from falling by printing massive amounts of currency, which was INFLATION, which is exactly my point: the governments prevent deflation to take course, prevent the failed companies from restructuring, prevent the consumer prices from falling by inflating the money supply and thus the governments destroy the economic activity in the country. See, you should NOT read Krugman, Krugman is one of the propaganda tools used to brainwash the light minded, like the ones leaving comments in this story.
You should try and find people who actually MAKE money in this environment and learn something from them instead. Krugman is a Keynesian charlatan. Krugman to economics what an astrologist is to astrophysics.
Obviously you say 'good bye' because there is not one single argument that you can present to fight against the simple truth:
people buy consumer goods with credit cards, so they pay more today than they would if they waited a year and paid less a year from now, so they are clearly not deterred by higher costs of goods they are buying if they need those goods. The only 'good' that people wouldn't buy today if it fell in price in a year from now would be an investment, and the gov't is using inflation (money printing) to prop up fake economy growth numbers, which in fact only measure the level of DESTRUCTION of value, destruction of the value of dollar and of savings, not any economic growth, because there is no economic growth. Inflation is destruction of the economy and the gov't needs it to feed the fake numbers and to feed itself at the expense of the current and of the future economy by destroying the value of savings and preventing restructuring and preventing economic reconstruction.
You are in fact brain dead, because even as you read my comment, you are still completely convinced in the ideology that was beaten into your head over the decades by the gov't that exists at this point only at the expense of the economy and society itself. You can't grasp simplest of things, you are dumber than a cave man when it comes to economics, you haven't progressed, you have regressed into some pre-amoebial state when it comes to economic understanding.
This here is not for you, it's for those who read your retarded comment and thought it had any value in it whatsoever beyond a clear example of somebody that has no pulse.
Without life, Biology itself would be impossible.
