Ideas Held Hostage

"Spread the word. Get on the wire to every squadron around the world. Tell them how to bring those sons of bitches down."--General William Gray

God made physical resources scarce. What isn't scarce is the creativity that springs forth from our minds. By combining those scarce resources with our abundant ideas we can alleviate some of that scarcity thru productivity improvement.

When we restrain ideas and our ability to use them in production, as we do thru 'intellectual property' laws, then we restrain prosperity.

When we hold ideas hostage, the world is a more barren place than it would be otherwise.
