if you think China is going to "buy" the technology, you're not paying attention



Yup, just look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China_Railways_CRH380A

Although I see it as a positive. The money spent to "buy" technology is essentially wasted money.

Is money spent to buy software also "wasted money"? How are you going to pay the engineers developing this technology?


Just because I make a living writing software does not mean I have to support all of this wealth transfer.

I can live on a decent wage. I don't need to make millions of dollars a year.

Screw "creatives" and screw this madness of royalties and license fees. Of what you're doing is of value to someone, they will pay you upfront.
