A comment on Why Can't the U.S. Build Ships?. Parent comment
You can’t steal IP. IP is nothing more than imperialism. It will go down in history as one of the great stupidities the rich use to control the poor.
I honor copyright. But not because it’s right. Simply because I can use it now to make bank on software. And I honor the social contract for others.
But we are all better off without it.
Thanks to it, we reinvent the wheel 50 times making new OSes and stuff such a massive waste of life.
