I understand the concept behind “Intellectual Property”, Trademarks and Copyrights, but it is my personal opinion that allowing someone to “coin a phrase” for their exclusive use is completely ridiculous. I feel that the whole idea of “taglines” or “slogans” has been taken too far by the legal system and is not protecting anyone. It is allowing people to feel empowered because their rights have been “established by paying the prescribed fee and filing in the Patent and Trademark Office”, just like a stingy child. A phrase is completely different than a device or invention. With a dictionary and enough time, perhaps a person could have sole rights to the majority of the English language, assuming they have enough money to pay the “prescribed fee” for all of the words and phrases they want to own. However, this would not provide absolute protection because another person could still use their “Intellectual Property” by simply appending a 1 to the end of the phrase. At least the “prescribed fee” is being put to good use by creating millions, possibly hundreds, of jobs for hardworking Federal employees. - JokerC
