The world has never been exempt from total freeloaders, as you seem to espouse. And at many times harsh laws and policeings brought down generally on all to cure the few.
I'd suggest to you that there is a great joy and good-feeling to be had in producing goods and services that others take to use. No freeload of stuff can substitute for that sense either.
Be what you must be, but consider that too.
The elite class expects this to be a big issue? I'm sorry, if the RIAA thinks it is important for this country to expend one resource dollar to protect them against the public, then their priorities are totally misapplied. If I buy one CD with what I consider 2 good tracks on it, why can't I copy those tracks along with others I like into a CD and then share it with friends? I paid the poor starving artist when I bought the product. What in the hell gives the RIAA the opinion that they should check the computers of people. The elite left is nothing but Nazis and those who agree with them are too.
