the laws of copyright is flawed in my opinion. If you take my book, lets call it, Peaches Are Good, and apples suck.

Obvious Stealing would be the novel
apples Are Good, and peaches suck.

but a novel referencing all the reasons I liked peaches, and why i dont like apples i think is fair game, unless i want to write this novel myself, and at anytime i should be able to beat out the other author.

I dont think you should be able to copyright the color blue.
and dont get me started on patents, which is exactly 100x worse cause you dont even have to "write the book" in order to sue someone saying you stole my idea (of course writing doesnt have patents though)
