RE: Please Stop Demanding Socialized Healthcare
I think that's a crazy argument. LOL! I'm not going to debate it any longer though. I know my legal rights, and know I legally own my images. You have opinions about those rights, and you are entitled to that! The blogger who recently had to pay up $7,500 for using an image she had no right to use, found that out the hard way.
You can laugh all you want, but you can't provide a logically consistent moral argument in favor of your position that derives from private property ethics. Since you clearly believe in private property, you need to think through your positions, rather than utilizing the government to prosecute people for perceived injustices.
I'm not saying you shouldn't be paid for your images, nor that you shouldn't shout down plagiarists every chance you get, but a copy isn't theft. It's not. It simply doesn't meet the criteria for being theft.
