Software patents shouldn't exist!
Patents shouldn't exist! Mostly.
We had a history before patents/copyright were enforced. It was pretty brutal for anyone trying to make a living with their creations. Take a look and see if you want to return to that.
I agree that it's the best thing in capitalist society. I feel like if you think patents should exist, software patents should also exist, though.
