In the case that I am not replying to a troll, can you provide any links or references? If I wanted to research your point of view, where should I begin?
You may not be able to prove Physics 101 on HN, but you could link you to Feynman's lectures on Physics which would get the interested layman started. That's the sort of thing I'm asking for, for this pro-IP viewpoint.
I'm an Objectivist, i.e., I agree with Ayn Rand. Here is a good reading list: [1].
Honestly, IP rights aren't a special case (setting aside patents, which isn't the topic of this thread); they're straightforward if you understand AR's theory of rights and property.
Another good reference is [2], but since AR's claims are hierarchial, you can't get the "whole story" very well from just looking up some specific topic.
