This way, patent corp. need only 'throw the fight' - sell the outcome of an inventor's patent application to the highest bidder with the greatest pull. Perhaps some of these organizations will aid competing foreign inventors and tyrants around the globe. Even imaginative money laundering schemes will be made possible by 3460. On the surface, H.R. 3460 is another in the burgeoning list of schemes allowing those who don't create to steal from those who do, and on this basis alone it should be opposed by anyone who values justice. To earn and keep profits, one must create and exchange values in a region whose government protects property rights.
Proper government is thus limited to being the policeman and adjudicator of disputes.
Nothing more, nothing less. There is a final, fundamental, and deadly problem with H.R. 3460. From soap and light bulbs to vaccines and pacemakers, every object our lives require must be produced before it can be used or stolen. But before it can be produced, it must be invented - the process where it's conceived as a new idea and then brought into material form. What the parasites don't realize is that those who invest the unspeakable amounts of toil, time and risk to invent the products and services they enjoy will stop if they no longer have a fighting chance to build upon their ideas - a chance secured only by a just and objective patent system.
