All creative works should become public domain in 18 years. Capitalism requires infinite growth, right? Well, there ya go! See how that helps?
Can't argue with that logic. If we're going to say "nah, we'll just be continuing to pump CO2 into the sky and hollowing out the ground for every scrap of precious minerals, until we literally strip the whole globe of every resource we can scavenge from it, and we've poisoned every liter of drinkable water, BECAUSE THE ECONOMY DEMANDS IT," then yeah, we should be placing a similar demand on infinitely growing creative resources, as well.
The irony, of course, being that CREATIVE RESOURCES ACTUALLY ARE FUCKING FUNCTIONALLY INFINITE.
Keep feeding these artist motherfuckers and they'll keep giving you fucking ideas. Goddamn. That should seem like a sweet deal, right?
Imo it should be only like 1 year if the owner of the media is not providing it for sale anywhere.
