The point I am making, though, is that what the US Constitution says on the matter is
not what's currently done. The Constitution authorises Congress to "to promote the progress of science and useful arts" by means of a copyright law. Do you really believe that current US copyright law
is doing this? I'm afraid that I don't.

Final comment on this whole topic being raised again. There are a significant number here that just do not accept the idea of intellectual property rights.

I'm certainly not against intellectual property rights. Far from it!
