Oic. However, we're not talking about natural resources but about intellectual property. You can't say that what

Interesting idea. Horseshit, though, for those of us who don't believe in Original Sin. If my father "sins" and is punished, say by removal of a hand, that doesn't make any children of his after that hand-less.

The whole concept of "owning" is contradictory to the true social nature of mankind, the concept of "property" is a deviation of human nature.

As proven by what?
Just to keep it clear: SF, I'm not arguing with
you but with the idea. Please defend it as you can, to try to explain it more thoroughly.
