    There is no good reason to do that.

    There is neither a good nor logical reason for the government to apply Eminent Domain to a copyrighted work.

    Giving government that power would effectively be tantamount to book burning.

    If government didn't like a film, an episode of a TV show, the entire TV show, a book, a newspaper, a website, any music, any art, it would simply use Eminent Domain to seize it and pull it from the Market.

    Not only does that equate to book burning, it smacks of Socialism, where government controls and/or owns all assets and means of production, in addition to wholesale State-sponsored censorship.

    Likewise, there is neither a good nor logical reason to use Eminent Domain for patents.

    Allowing government to remove technology it doesn't like is very Stalinistic.

    You want to make Amazon richer and the small businesspeople who invent things poorer. That is ALL that the OP's proposed policy will accomplish. Congrats. You want to screw American innovators. Bravo.

    Move to another country please. Your kind is screwing up this one.

    Yes, sorry. I noted you have no legit counter-arguments, you just don't like what I posted. Sorry, you will need to make actual economic arguments to make your point.

    Which, you lazily decided not to do.

    Content-free denial noted. Yes, you did. But if you want to pretend you didn't, that's all on you.

    Yes, that's simple fact. You do. Otherwise, provide your proof that it won't work that way. In detail. Thanks.

    So, you have no evidence of your claim and want to try and shift the burden of proof to me. Yeah, no thanks. Go ahead and post up your facts.

    You state I'm doing something and refuse to post proof that I'm doing it. Not my fault.

    It's no secret Biden had no plan, then denied there was an issue. The videos of his spokespeople are clear facts of this (which you dishonestly ignore).

    While the lazy pause and reflect, the ambitious our out there making it happen. Notice how people show up wanting some of the profits without all the work and risk taking!

    This is a classic example of the difference between wishing and wanting!

    Here's one of many Biden mouthpieces saying they DO NOT HAVE A PLAN to get Americans out.

    You edited out the proviso I included to prevent all of that from happening. Why?

    Here it is again:
    "...it should be prohibitively expensive for the state and ludicrously prosperous for the 'domainee' so as to limit its use to only when absolutely necessary."

    Even the govt wouldn't be able to afford to use ID as you describe so long as they have to pay out enough to do it.

    Why we might need to ID a patent- suppose an alternative method of generating cheap/clean energy were developed and immediately bought up and suppressed by big oil and/or the carbon exchange partners so as to protect their investments and market monopoly. Patent laws would immediately hecome a tool of oppression. With ID we could force a govt anullment of the patent, pay them out a few billion and recoup the losses quite quickly with a global energy revolution.

    Amazon is already using its data on sales to steal designs from it's most successful business partners. Imagine how rich Bezos would be if he could ignore patents altogether?

    Inventors would wake up and be able to buy 10 of their product online with Free Shipping (with Amazon Prime) before they could even get a contract to have their idea produced.
