Do you actually belive this?

Cooperate America seems to be the only echo chamber that belives software patents are a pretty neat idea.

I'm sure there are some pro-patent Google employees, they just don't seem to post on here :-) But I don't understand what you mean by "corporate America"... Aren't companies that are complaining loudly about software patents also part of "corporate America"? How is that an echo chamber?
