> The right of ownership comes from productive labour.

So, writing software, making a film, or researching the next "big thing" isn't productive?

Okay, let's pretend that it isn't. How do you intend for these things to be made? Take a look at that list in >>38 and point out to me how it should be done.

> These people are not creating things on a contract basis

Quite a few buildings are also created with the prospect of selling. Since there's no contract, people should them for free.

That's a red herring. There are conditions when people buy these things. Then they break them. This is why we're seeing IP holders resorting to DRM and harsher legislation.
