It’s not the “musicians, artists & poets” crowd being greedy here it’s a media corporation.

I never "got" just why the republican congress extended copyrights over Mickey Mouse back when.

Did Disney "support" them in any way?

Did Disney throw some contributions their way?

Considering that Eisner was CEO of Disney at the time, I'd think he would have thrown the GOP a bone. But he didn't, and the current CEO laughs at, and spits in the faces of conservatives.

Nice job, republicans!

Reward your enemies and get kicked in the teeth in return.

My complaint is that the “Intellectual Property” laws for the “musicians, artists & poets” are grossly different than those for the engineers, machinists, mechanics and tinkerers.

Blue Collar vs Artistes & the Literary, if you will.

Dirty fingernails vs the lifted pinkie.
