Software Patents

In theory, I'm not against software patents if we were able to get back to the core beneficial principles of patents and apply them properly. This would imply developing a process that would ensure that patents were only granted for truly novel ideas. But unless such a process were properly put together, I'd rather see software patents eliminated completely. A world without software patents would be better than the mess we're currently in.
