The playing field won't be level without patents or copyright. Why would I an average idiot make or invent something if the exact second I show the world my invention someone takes it and mass-produces it within a week? I have no chance to raise capital to make the invention myself if you can already buy it in every store. The Chinese manufacturing industry essentially does this already but to a lesser degree. Imagine if every company did that. No small companies or individuals would stand a chance against Goliath.

And again the word monopoly is very misleading in this discussion, especially when it comes to copyright. There is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from making superhero movies just because Marvel/Disney owns a lot of superhero rights. You are just not allowed to make an exact copy of their movie but you are allowed to make similar movies all day long.

Another example is a professional photographer. Do you really think that they should be awarded no rights whatsoever to the photograph they took?

The same obviously applies to huge companies as well. Why make a movie if it's available for free download literally everywhere.

How do you propose that the makers of content, inventions and products get paid? Donations? Get real, that won't happen.
