‘chose not to define categories of inventions that would be excluded from patent protection’

The reason why they did not was they believed and as recited in our federal Constitution every ‘useful’ invention deserved patent protection. James Madison wrote in the Federalist Papers “The utility of the clause will scarcely be questioned. The copyright of authors has been solemnly adjudged, in Great Britain, to be a RIGHT of common law. The right to useful inventions seems with equal reason to belong to the inventors. The public good fully coincides in both cases with the claims of the individuals.”

No doubt, that right does not coincide with the interests of large thieving multinationals who have conspired to destroy us and our patent system. But the purpose of the clause was to ‘secure’ the rights of inventors, not to deprive them of with a shell game for a patent system where rights go to the highest bidder.

Any just bill must provide for the patenting of ALL useful inventions. We continue to work with our friends in Congress to precisely do that and to codify our other proposed measures in our bill which will truthfully restore the patent system so that inventors will once again have a realistic expectation we will be able to commercialize our inventions.

‘far quicker’

‘Complaints at the U.S. trade agency typically take 15-18 months once the commission agrees to investigate, far quicker than a district court.’

But inventors and small entities seldom have access to the ITC and the problems for us with the courts are far deeper and beyond. In general, it is now far too hard, expensive and slow for us to get and enforce, or even keep our patents if we try. For us the patent system is all but dead. We spend a good chunk of our lives and savings to develop technologies we will never realistically be able to commercialize. The federal government has failed it’s Constitutional mandate to protect America’s ‘faculties’, which as President James Madison declared is the ‘first object of government’ and one of the principle reasons the founders argued why the federal government should be created. Without it, are there enough just arguments for a federal government? Do its evils and costs outweigh its benefits to the states and their citizens?

Meanwhile, our large multinational competitors rob and plunder us while they export American jobs to foreign shores. When they can’t export jobs they import workers who displace Americans. This in no small measure is why Americans can’t find good paying full time jobs and why our college graduates can’t find jobs in their fields of study….unless they move to China or India.
