This sounds like bullshit. It's basically saying nobody ever gets to own anything. They only own a limited right to use that they can transfer, but in doing so they need to pay the original owner. We already have a means of artists and companies and what not profiting from secondary market activity. The next time they issue stock or sell a new painting, the price is higher than the last time. They don't need a cut every time everything they ever make resells. This just reduces the ability of anyone else down the line to profit and entrenches the power and wealth of original owners.
