If ideas are property, why do we have general education that gives away ideas but asks students to pay for some of their other basic materials?
Hmm.. don't we pay for general education via our taxes?
However, you can rightly argue that what we pay for is just the infrastructure (buildings, personnel, books, etc.) not the actual ideas.
Mind you, another thought, aren't the ideas taught in the public domain anyway?
And that's the last I'll say as this is completely off topic for this list.
