Comment Re:Abolish patents? (Score 1) 476
Patents is one of the worst ways of making money for people with good ideas, and specially for SME:s. Patents don't boost innovations, they impende it. And patents don't bring in the money, they waste it. It's a myth created by the big industries that patents are boosting development. Patents is just an instrument for the big companies to controll the market.
"Hey guys, I've got an idea... but I can't develop it because it's patented or will be if I reveal my idea."
No one wants to remove tha ability to make money, that's way patents have to go.
