At 7 mins - Capital must be invested with new ideas to develop products
Patents help protect the developer of that idea or he ends up like in that cartoon, getting a raise with everyone else for increase in millions in profits rather than the 15% an entrepreneur should get (at the very least... well, nowadays this structure of competition doesn't exist so this cartoon no longer applies... but it is how it was supposed to be... nowadays, in the US, working standards and wages are falling and even bad entrepreneurship & management in big companies get a larger than 15% return, this isn't sustainable unless there is a war to distract people from their living conditions).
