No one has ever invented anything,
they just combined the ideas of others
The fallacy of Intellectual Property Rights, and how it truncates creativity.
Observing the speed of development in several regions in the world, it is easy to see, that Asia is growing much faster than the western world. One of the differences in the Asian culture is, that they hardly have an idea about the value of intellectual property rights (IP rights). And there is a good chance that the abstinence of Intellectual Property Protection (IP protection) and IP rights, is at least a part of the reason for the fast growth of the Asian economy.
Common Knowledge Or Intellectual Property Rights
Commonly available knowledge, which is not covered by Intellectual Property Rights, allows everybody to make the best use of it. Which allows growth faster. Because everybody can use it and build new ideas, methods, techniques, and strategies based on it. If many people are thinking at the same time it is like the multitasking of a supercomputer.
The protection of the usage of knowledge is a big handicap for natural organic growth. Because only a few people who got access to it can build upon it to develop. So creativity gets limited. A view of a single person is like a single-threaded abacus.
IP Protection
The companies, that are collecting the most information from their customers are growing the fastest: Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and SAP, ... Why?
With their cloud services, they store so much data from their customers.
But knowledge is NOT power,
Knowledge is only potential power.
One needs to use it and act on it,
Only APPLIED knowledge is power!
So why are those data collectors growing so fast? The answer is simple: They analyze it, learn from it and act. If this is legal or not ... But the result is obvious.
Intellectual property protection in ๐จ๐ณ and the ๐บ๐ธ
IP rights protection is the single most limiting factor for growth in the western world. And it is already leading to international conflicts. The Americans worry, that China will become a stronger economic force than themself. And what they even fear more, is: Not having the strongest currency in the world anymore. That is the reason for the trade war with China, the import taxes, and all the noise around it. The government of the USA will do anything to avoid, that China getting stronger. With protectionism, taxes, money, oil, or blood. With the manners of the Sheriff of the world, they are acting on the spiral dynamics red meme. And a lot of US Americans think like that. This is probably one of the reasons, they voted for their last president.

Asia will become the leading economic force in the world.
The only question is: When?
So, instead of IP protection, it would be better to solve the problem at its source:
Drop Intellectual Property Rights (IP Rights)
Eliminating copyright, patent rights, and similar nonsense, that limits (intellectual) growth is a step toward releasing the natural abundance in the universe. Because no one has ever invented anything. Every inventor combines ideas, thoughts, and the work of others in a new way.
Any knowledge has been around forever. Who are you, to claim that anything of it belongs to you? God!
OMG, what a non-beneficial belief! What's god got to do with it? She'd never claimed something only for herself!
Sharing is caring!
That's one of her first principles, you may also call it LOVE.
Vital and happy regards

Pretty! This has been a really wonderful post. Thank you for supplying this information.
Hmm is anyone else experiencing problems with the images on this blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
The more I browse through the topic the more I understand that
one is worth reading it! We donโt really read everything
on the net, except these guys , but
your article is of that sort, too. Thanks a ton for such a brilliant work!
Thank you for sharing this valuable information together.
As a practicing writer, I will say that I was trying to include
a few details and provoking ideas in my writing clinic
intuitively. I believe it’s necessary to spice
up your writing in the event you wish to grab the viewers’ attention. But you
did great, thanks
I was looking for up to date advice on this subject for a few days.
Now I’m satisfied because I have finally attained your post.
I all the time used to read paragraph in news papers but now as I am
a user of internet thus from now I am using net for articles, thanks to web.
What an outstanding post, thank you so much for rising this matter.
Being profoundly assured that a great deal of people would talk
about your perspectives, and I even showed your writing to a close
friend of mine. And that is when the arguments started…
We have different views but, obviously, no problem, be it just something
routine or genuinely important, should destroy a real friendship.
In my humble view, which surely has the right to exist, the first point you’ve made
cannot be contested.
