Our founding fathers knew the importance of intellectual property in supporting innovation and creativity in our nation. The understanding created the first copyright law. However, this law has expanded beyond its good intentions to the point where progress and innovation is stifled.
Two days ago, Derek Khanna of the RSC wrote an article detailing the issues and steps to reform our copyright law. This article can be found here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/113633834/Republican-Study-Committee-Intellect...
It can no longer be found among the RSC as it was pulled. However, those who read it, Republican and Democrat agree that this deserves attention.
Thus I ask to please read and consider the points of this article.
