THINK TANK ISSUE: Concept - LAW PROHIBITING THE SUPPRESSION OF TECHNOLOGY/INFORMATION/INVENTIONS THAT WOULD HELP THE GREATER GOOD OF MAN/WOMAN
Instead of enacting laws that take away our rights as a free people, I believe that if our lawmakers concentrated on enacting new laws, with real teeth and having the ability to pierce the corporate veil, that would make it illegal to withhold technology/information/inventions that could be used to resolve our energy needs and health issues (any other issues that should be added?) we’d all be better off.
Here’s some added thoughts I have on this subject:
The party that owns the rights to a particular technology/information/inventions solution should be compensated by way of a review committee funded out of Federal Government budgets. The rewards should be limited and reduced depending on how long this controlling group has kept them under wraps.
To launch these laws there should be an amnesty period of 60 days from the enactment of this law to release and post this info to a particular Government web site. Full disclosure of all information should be made including but not limited to research, testing, design ideas, plans and any info that would be needed to advance these technology/information/inventions and announce what the potential uses for these ideas are.
This law will not only nullify any confidentiality agreement signed by any inventor /researcher/technologist BUT reverse the obligation to disclosure with the same teeth/penalties that the suppressors have on them. Government protection should be offered to anyone that can should they have information and feel threatened.
All this information provided through this endeavour would be made available for public use with some form of royalty to the groups that have invented it, driving others to invent.
WHAT DO YOU THINK AND WHAT ADDITIONAL IDEAS WOULD YOU ADD TO THIS CONCEPT?!

It's good on it's merits, but in practicality it won't work. Corporations hack each other to get ideas and/or updates on the competition. Competition to get something new out is what drive invention. But if you are forced to give up your ideas, then someone else could change it slightly then benefit, on your idea. I think it would work better if, you get the item finished then it would become GNU with royalties. But then the corruption comes in and hits those same royalties as tax, cost of government, and you end up making a living on several inventions instead of one good one?

There are always those that think with the pocketbook. Waiting for you to come up with an idea.
I love physics. It bonds us eternally, it's what makes our computers work, it's what's in my morning cup of coffee, it's the thing that keeps the universe from vanishing due to lack of belief...

I wished we all could have discussions on how we make things better and not focusing on the negative of most situations.

I think this will be a law at some point, and I think we will start seeing people locked up for doing this kind of stuff.
