I am afraid there is a lot more to it. If we forget our narrow "artist"
culture-based mentality and we take a look at the world outside, we see what
all this copyright/trademark thing is about: transgenics, AIDS treatments,
whole continents starving, human slavery... it's all there.

Disney are not lobbying for Mickey Mouse, they are lobbying for XXIst
century capitalism.
