Apr 24 2011: You cannot have freedom while you have copyrights and patents that seem to go on forever.
There is one fellow who copyrights English Phrases. When the author of a book used one of these phrases he got sued but the printer settled out of court for $1000 because it was the cheapest way out.
Also since "The Patriot act" Americans have had their freedom of speech curtaied.
