But aren't we discussing opposite laws when we compare the farm and a copyright. The farmer only profits from the farm if he doesn't allow others use of it. Laws regarding physical property relate to the manner in which we are allowed to deny people use of items. A writer only profits from his book by convincing others to use it. Copyright laws are the manner in which we give people use of items. For myself at least I can't even begin to compare the two because of this very difference.
