Theodore Roosevelt’s “Citizenship in a Republic” speech, delivered at the Sorbonne in Paris on April 23, 1910, is popularly known as “The Man in the Arena.” In this speech, Roosevelt emphasizes the importance of individual action and effort over criticism and spectatorship. He argues that:
Roosevelt’s speech encourages individuals to take an active role in shaping their communities and the world, rather than simply criticizing others from a distance.

Oof is this complicated. Yes, but no.
If there is no IP then why would you bother creating or inventing?
On the other hand, Disney extended the timeline of copyrights beyond reason.
Edit: I understand not everyone needs monetary rewards to create something, however I think there are a lot of things that without the monetary reward would not exist.
Do you like video games? Everyone here seems to think we can just copy the files without any harm to anyone. But if all games were free, what sort of games would be created? If game companies stood to make no money, why would they bother with such a large production? Why would Nintendo bother being Nintendo?
It’s not that video games wouldn’t exist without the IP, it’s that without the monetary reward there wouldn’t be such a drive over such an extended period of time. But maybe we only need indie games and no one here has ever enjoyed AAA games. That’s fair, if true.
Just a reminder if you want free books / audiobooks check out Libby, it connects to your local library. You just need a library card!
Nope, that would eat into our profit. Better to just not sell anything! /s
They let a bad apple spoil the bunch by not getting rid of the bad apple. Reaping what they sow.
