Personnel

gollark: How could you POSSIBLY sanely compute that?
gollark: Good idea.
gollark: > @Emankcin Driew let's see if that argument holds in a court of lawIt won't, because the law says that patents are a thing.
gollark: The tax should probably go up over time on each patent.
gollark: Maybe make it so you get taxed some % of a patent's value each year. You might say "hmm but how do we calculate value". Simple! Make it so that you *specify* the value, and anyone who is willing to pay that much can buy it off you/pay for it to enter the public domain for that much.
