Free for the poor

I should provide more info or build upon this. As I stated at the start It is not polished yet. but help my build upon it with your changes or a rough statement of why it won't work or will work or what could be done in order to make it work. I am not a genius I can't produce something that will become accepted on my own. Together we might come up with something that will become accepted and from there we might just have a chance at changing the law.
I also read about TV companies releasing adds with torrents that they could update every six months. This is a great idea.
Be aware anonymouse99 is Australian from the state of Tasmania. It would be the perfect test ground for this idea.
I'm from San Francisco, and I like your idea.
Thank you, may I ask what it is that you like about my idea and what you think will work and why you think it will work?
Lately I have noticed that some of the artists of music and the writers of books have openly allowed their material to be downloaded inside a torrent like system and I thought finally people are beginning to see things in the truest sense that it can be seen. They are starting to wade away from the river of crap that is brought on by greed and the evil nature to stand on the backs of others and keep the poor poor, where they think obviously that they should stay. If we raise the level of intelligence in our work force we can increase the level of our economy. We need intelligent people more than ever and we seem to be doing all we can to keep the poor from turning into something beautiful. Offer a hand up not a hand out!
I ask you. Do the poor have the money to buy the T.V. shows and movies that they download? No! Are the production industries really loosing money because these people are downloading these things? No! If the poor had the money to buy these things they would, as it is much better to own a blue ray disk or a book or even have the ability to stream what music they want before downloading than it is to have files on a computer for many reasons that they would have to wade through.
Imagine a world where the poor are aloud to download things to keep them from getting too depressed imagine a world where the poor are improving their brains using software and free books to learning new things. Not everyone can read a book from the library in two weeks and not everybody can treat a book with care. Its not hard to imagine. Would they want to damage their brains with too many drugs or too much of the same drug? No! They do this because they see no path out of their situation so they destroy themselves and the others around them in an attempt to feel better about their situation for a short time at least if not over the long haul like most alcoholics.
Why do the rich have to stand on the backs of the people and lord it over them with laws that they themselves were obviously the ones to originally influence? Why do we allow ancient laws that are based on different times to corrupt us when we know that the things we buy in the shops are better and that is truly what we want but others can’t afford them.
The pirates are the greatest source of advertising that these producers have ever known and its all free to them. People whom pirate are actually doing the producers a great service and they are too greedy to see it that way. People will always change and the laws should always change with them to suit them not to hold them back from their true potential. Although I agree with most laws I do not agree with the copyright act that was originally written in 1968 and emended up to the date of 1990 something. It has had little improvements and little consideration for the lowest communities or the people effected just the producers. Why hasn’t a system been devised where by a person can bring a hard disk to a video store or rental agency in order to rent a workable video format for a short period of time to phase out the use of such non bio degradable plastics? Why can’t we go to a store and have our purchases put onto our hard disks with the premise that the file scans the hard disk so that the file may only be used from that hard disk and is write only? A simple new type of file system would be of great use here.
Let the poor have whatever they need to improve themselves and keep themselves happy let the rich be fined 60,500 dollars and receive up to five years imprisonment for what they have the ability to purchase because I know the people on the unemployment benefits have barely enough to feed themselves and resort to not eating in order to entertain themselves. Let the old computers be reused by the poor in this fashion and not just become land fill. I know there are plenty of unemployed IT personnel up to the task.
Under the right conditions man will always strive to improve himself. If man sees no way out of his situation then of course he will be filled with rage and depression and maybe even do what he can to destroy himself because of self hatred for the actions he took or did not take that got him or her in that situation.
Half the under privileged out there who hurt people or perform illegal acts do so because they have little else to do and to them it is exciting or they gain something they would otherwise not have had. They are not smart enough to think of the effects of such injustice.
We could be doing what we can to keep the levels of crime down and be truly putting what people consider to be the evil members of society in jail where they belong but we are not! Our prisons are over stocked and it is just costing more and more for the society that we are trying to protect. Guess what the protection of society should start in peoples minds not in a prison! With each generation there is a new chance for change.
Do your best to change the law and join me on my crusade and never forget to fight for what you believe in.
So yes it’s a great idea.
