it is not reality. people will still invest and develop and create and produce because people seek profit. you have a lot of fear of the market and competition; once again you side with big gvmt.

there are plenty of incentives for creation, none of which have anything to do with monopoly protections.

also, creativity can't be stolen. you ought to check your fallacies
