Just as I try to keep my money put of the hands of scumbag creators, I try to keep my money out of the hands of any and all of the rentseeking scumbags who didn't create it but try to profit from it anyway, which includes their heirs. It's just that as far as that goes, it doesn't matter whether or not the creator was a scumbag - that's my position in all cases. permalink fedilink source parent
