If you really want to know, Section 101 of the Patent Act defines what subject matter is eligible for patent protection.  For more than 200 years, it and its analogs basically forbade things that were physically impossible, or so abstract that they could not be reduced to a physical object or method steps, and occasionally discovered laws of nature.  So it was only used against crackpot inventors by the Patent Office to deny them patents on perpetual motion machines and weird-ass ideas.  Completely non-controversial.

Starting about 10 years ago, in response to the made up software patent/troll crisis, the Court took it upon itself to make Section 101 a weapon against software and business method patents, allowing wholesale infringers like Google and Apple to knock off patent owners early in a litigation.

But the courts have lost control of the doctrine almost entirely, it's a meaningless gobbledygook that seriously undermines the patent system with unpredictability, both in the getting of patents at the PTO, and the suing over them in the courts.  It's so bad that even the advocates for it in the first place, big tech, and everyone else are begging the courts for clarity and resolution.  The lower courts have basically thrown up their hands and said "our hands are tied by the Supreme Court."  

American Axle was a case over a patent on automotive drive shafts and optimizing them for vibration.  It presented a fairly golden opportunity for the court to clarify the law.

Patent, copyright, maybe even trademark are due for an upgrade for the digital age.

But these things are too technical for courts to sort through based on a single case.  Lawmakers don't even do a good job half the time (DMCA).

Patent facts are never sexy.  In fact, one of the things that made this such a golden opportunity is that the technology was so concrete and not abstract or difficult to understand.

The "software patent" problem, and related troll problem begged for a legislative solution.  Instead, it got this.

And in a cautionary way, this situation is very illustrative.  The Supreme Court has announced what is the law in this area.  And now it can't be fixed legislatively.

Crazy thing is though - we have mechanisms to fully address these issues, but there's so much political money in the system (thanks roberts and citizens united...) that it's virtually impossible to craft effective legislation now. It's all just a vehicle for the lobbyists to get a return on their investment - completely co-opted our representatives from the will of the people in favor of whomever has the most greenbacks

Correct.  Citizens United ensured complete and total regulatory capture.  Like I said above, their dream is a fascist oligarchical state -- if you want to see our end-game, take a trip to Moscow.

Actually, if you want to see the endgame, see Iran: A largely secular populace ruled by a small cabal of religious fundamentalists.

That is where we disagree. This is a definitive statement and it is definitely wrong. State law does not "control" on federal land, federal laws do. State laws also apply due to a regulatory decision, but full control of nearly all federal areas is retained by the feds. The regulations, rules, permits etc are all done by the feds. In our case, I doubt the state even knew we were there. 

Your post is clearly implying that the Feds could not build abortion facilities on BLM land, because those lands are somehow controlled by state laws. This is 100% false and even if that were true and those state laws conflicted with federal laws, the federal laws have priority due to the Supremacy clause. 

 

Good lord, man. I clearly meant that the state law applies and I have said multiple times that the regulation can be easily changed by BLM. You're talking about conflict of laws principles, I wasn't. Once more: I was only commenting that state law applies under the current regulation. You're def a whole weirdo for still trying to debate this when I already said "controls" wasn't the best word choice.

Troph, as you well know, my wife marries people.  All people.  And she has for years, even before the government would recognize some of those marriages.  Her policy back then was that she would perform the wedding ritual for all.  And, if/when the government legally allowed, she would come back and perform the full legal ceremony for free.  When Obergefel came out, she ended up "re-marrying" multiple couples, eager to make their union official.

Two days ago, she got her first call from a same sex couple who have her booked to marry them later this year.  They are still keeping that date for the wedding with all the family and friends.  But they asked her if she would be willing to perform the legal ceremony next week, while it is still legal.  And they asked her if she had a place to perform the ceremony, and what it would cost them.  She gave them the same answer that she gave before Obergefel -- there is no cost, and she would be happy to perform it at our home.  We have a nice deck overlooking a greenbelt, multiple couples have married there.

For those of you who celebrate this SCOTUS, your fellow citizens are already scrambling to do their best to secure a future for themselves and their families.  And I know that you LIKE IT THAT WAY.  So, in case my sentiments weren't clear, burn in hell.

Well, fundamentally, if the litmus test is "is it deeply rooted in American history?", then pretty much nothing post Plessy v. Ferguson counts for shit.  Again, Alito has created a test that "if a right or other legal concept wasn't recognized in 1789, then it cannot be constitutionally protected" is just fucking jaw-dropping, and 100% inconsistent with the intent of the founders they claim to revere.  Men like Jefferson EXPRESSLY SAID that they did not expect the constitution to be frozen in time.

Think of it this way -- one of the most "deeply rooted in American history" things ever is "black people are slaves/second class citizens."  Note that this continued EVEN AFTER THE 13th and 14th Amendments.  As a matter of practice, black people have been less than fully human for the vast majority of American history.  It's one of our most consistent treatments of any group of people.  I can't see how you can apply Alito's litmus test and not simply declare that black people do not have the same rights as white people.  There is no rational way to apply the test and reach any other conclusion.

Because it's the sickest, stupidest, most bullshit "legal test" the court has ever come up with.

It is a beast amped up on the "steroids" of power, and now just rampaging for the sake of rampaging.  We are well down the road of doing cruel things because "fuck you, we can, and you can't stop us."  That's how human nature works.  When people who have a single-minded focus on power, and they see the surest way of demonstrating the degree of that power is to hurt people, showing that they cannot be stopped, this is how it goes.  "Fuck you, I'm in charge, you're my little bitch, and I can do whatever I want to you -- here, watch this as I smash eggs on your head and hammer nails through your feet, and you can't do shit to stop me, that's how powerful I am."  That's what we're seeing -- how raw power is used by humans at their worst.  It is what we have always called "evil."  This is exactly what evil looks like.  The word has meaning, and we're living through the definition.

We're lucky enough to get all of the above!

Too many years since I read the books, but (per Wikipedia) Heinlein's Neamiah Scudder became leader of a theocracy in 2012, with the ensuing revolution in 2100.  Seems many fictional prophesies were too close to the truth.

How can you put aside that issue here?  This case is about an Alabama statute that prohibits puberty blockers and sex reassignment surgeries for minors.  I guess you are in favor of minors being given puberty blockers and sex reassignment surgery?

Also, it is not a court citing it.  It is Alabama's attorney citing Dobbs to support their position that the state has the authority to block minors from receiving puberty blockers and having their genitals surgically altered.

You must be an incredibly shitty lawyer. Being against a law banning something doesn't mean I'm for that same thing.

I believe you've stated in the past you are against criminalization of marijuana. Do you consider yourself in favor of minors being given marijuana then?

I am for doctors and patients being able to discuss and decide upon appropriate treatments and interventions.

1) If the "it" you're referring to is the law banning the practice, then as a factual matter at this point it almost is certainly constitutional per Dobbs.

2) Sure, I feel somewhat similar about abortion. I think banning it should be unconstitutional and that the Court isn't supposed to lightly throw away 50 years of precedent establishing substantive rights. I think a law banning it is bad. But I also believe it should be avoided when possible.
