The Patent Act Is A Cheat On Americans
When displaced American workers complain about outsourcing U.S. manufacturing jobs to take advantage of cheap Chinese factory labor, and about insourcing low-paid Asians on H-1B visas to take engineering and computer jobs, the globalists and multinational corporations have a ready answer. They recite in chorus: don't worry, be happy, because American technology and innovation enable us to compete in the global market.
But now those same globalists and multinationals are trying to outsource our technology and innovation advantage by delivering a body-blow to our unique and original patent system. This plan comes under the deceptive label Patent "Reform" Act (H.R. 1908), and it's already been rushed through the U.S. House.

Large corporations have already circumvented the intent of the constitution by requiring all patent rights be signed over as a condition of employment. Now the rascals want to hi-jack it altogether. Who is surprised? Let's defeat this. Then ask for a law that preserves at least a small percentage of the patent as intilectual property that can never be taken away. The original idea should bring it's originator some profit not just a one time atta-boy award. Many have made their companies millions.
