Patents protect innovation by placing a serious financial consequence for the huge, lawyer rich, corporations who steal novel designs from real innovators.
Toyota is paying $99 per Prius for Patent infringement.
They can afford it.
I can only assume people who think Patent holders should be the victims of property theft would think differently if I moved into their house and kicked them out.
You should try getting a patent sometime, assuming you have the imagination to create something that has never been made before.
