- pixcavator 19y agoThe guy is quite ignorant. First, "oral rehydration therapy" is not about copyrights, but it theoretically could be patentable. Second, there _are_ taxes on patents - that's what those post-award fees are.
- blackguardx 18y agoWhether "oral rehydration therapy" is copyrightable is beside the point. That aside by the author doesn't weaken his main claim. There are no taxes on copyrights. Yet, my company has to pay taxes on all its other assets. Why shouldn't copyright be treated the same way?
