Why should I pay for Paul McCartney retirement?
It is NOT MY PROBLEM if Paul McCartney or U2 did not save for retirement. RRSP and the like are not hard to fill, especially if copyright provides great revenues for very popular artists. Even a 14-year copyright term would let them have lots of funds, if they did save for retirement.
Now, they did not save for retirement, but bought luxury cars and the like. Why the society should pay their retirement with the recent copyright extension in Europe?
The CRTC is corrupt.
Two recent examples: Bell Canada’s bandwidth throttling and the Do Not Call List. These are STILL both happening.
WHY?
