Germany to Vote Against Software Patents in the EU

'Under no circumstances do we want American procedures in Europe", Hucko vowed with regard to the US patent process. 'A patent must be "a fair reward for a bona fide invention and not abused as a strategy to bludgeon competitors.' With the largest EU member against software patents and French IT leaders lobbying their goverment to vote against them too, Europe might be saved from software patents.

How do you equate communism making a comeback to the EU protecting it's
virtual civil liberties when it comes to software patents?!? Did you even
go to and read the link provided?

Yes I read the link. And I am not an MVP. The US and its
systems are not perfect. Europe is not perfect either.
The world is . . . like it is. Deal with it. The person
who finishes the race in first place is the winner. No
amount of ranting can change that . . .

Actually, if you just keep quiet about stuff, then you definitely cannot
change anything. Ranting has changed many things. The squeaky wheel
gets the grease.

It's a shame you give up and rollover without a fight. Who cares if they
strip me of all of my rights as a consumer and human being in this
country... The world is like it is (we still have some freedoms) because I
and some others fight for our rights instead of just accepting all of the
freedoms Corporations want to strip us of.
Deal with it.

I am dealing with it, This is how I deal with it. I don't bend myself over
the table for them. I fight for my rights instead.

The person
who finishes the race in first place is the winner. No
amount of ranting can change that . . .

It's a shame that defeatists like yourself don't even try.

Since true communism has never been tried yet, how could it make a
comeback.
