“A shining example of why patenting processes should not be possible.”

Why? If I invent a new process that produces gold from combination of known metals, it would certainly be fair that I can patent that major innovation.

I think the key is that the invention must be technical, rather than dealing with abstract things (tax schemes, cap-and-trade policies).
