If you're running a dictatorship, you don't really have to worry about the welfare or the property rights of the ordinary citizen. Only the people who keep you in power, a very small group, matter.

The electronic spectrum is the only natural resource in which there's no such thing as private property rights. You can't own a piece of the spectrum.

The dichotomy between personal liberties and property rights is a false one. Property does not have rights. People have rights.

We really can't tell the difference between people who might seek power for some greater good and people who seek power just to aggrandize themselves. For example, all revolutionaries say that they want to uplift the downtrodden.

I am a strong believer that intellectual property rights need to be protected.

A nation's economy is more than its markets, tastes, technologies and property rights.
