How Creativity is being strangled by the law

This is a must watch for anybody with access to a computer, which obviously means everybody who sees this. Larry Lessig, a Stanford professor and copyright expert, talks about how our current view of copyright is counterproductive in the truest sense of the word. He explains in a brief talk about how the democratization of "content" is critical. It made me think about how these same ideas apply to politics. It seems as thought there is a fairly direct correlation and that our current "read only" methods of governance where the individual has little to no input could benefit from becoming a bottom-up "read-write" system.
