You state:
The limited grant provides a limited time monopoly so
inventors can gets PAID.
Sorry.... there is no guarantee.
If no one ever licenses the patented item or purchases it - all the money in
R&D and Business costs is out the window with absolutely zero
profit.
In such a situation, the inventor who failed to turn his idea
into a functional business can not appeal to the Government to - for example -
pay the insurance so s/he can recover the costs. As a result, I would agree
with:
The limited grant provides a limited time monopoly so inventors
might recover their costs.

Most inventors get paid by the companies that hire them, and in most cases,
draw no extra income from 'their' patents.
There are a few independent inventors, but ALL inventors are beholden to the
absurdly expensive production and distribution machine the BSP & Congress
have created and continue to nurture.
You believe there's a connection between patents and the possibility of
inventors getting paid. There is not.
As an inventor, I would much rather draw a steady salary, than depend on the
patent lottery.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
