1. In this incident, I'm not sure Sen. Leahy caved into Lobbiests? He probally did, but not sure.
2. I think the real reason is,"Our general view is to be good rather than to be fast," said Dana Rao, Adobe's vice president of intellectual property and litigation, told National Journal last month. It's especially important to get legislation just right, he added, because "we're not going to get a third shot at a patent bill in Congress," referring to the America Invents Act that Congress passed in 2011, which overhauled some aspects of the patent system."
3. No matter wat the outcome, I feel it will be challenged in the Supreme Court?
4. I hope this passes though.
5. I would like to see one clause added to this bill, and yes, I know it's too late, but the clause is; If you, or your company are below the federal poverty line--fees for patents, and trademarks should be
drastically reduced. Right now they give micro-entities a break, but it's not enough. Poor Americans should be able to file for patent protection. Lack of money shouldn't be
an reason. I don't think millions of poor people would flood the patent office with patent applications either, but
you might get a few poor boys, who had an original idea, who
filled out the papers correctly--get protection for their idea.
