Want some answers to the question posed by this blog posting? Here are some very logical ones…
- I don’t know what I am doing.
- I don’t have the skills necessary to do it right.
- I don’t care whether I do it right or not.
- I only have one arm and this is a clapping contest.
I am deliberately not performing well so I can charge more
for not performing well.
for not performing well.
You are now thinking that I am making up silly stuff in my ongoing pursuit of Foolishness … or am I?
Actually you are being silly. Always remember, my Foolishness is based on the facts I run across from the silly world in which we live.
As published in the Wall Street Journal on June 3, 2010, our U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is now going to Charge Inventors Extra for Expedited Service.
I am now going to think my way through this one. Please read on…
- Fact … Our Patent Office takes an awful long time to grant patents.
- Fact … Our inventors get awful frustrated having to wait that awful long time for approval of their inventions.
- Fact … Our Patent Office is now going to reap significant financial rewards as a result of their years of Bureaucratic Foot Dragging.
You want to get your patent approved?
If you will pay extra, we will jump right on your nifty idea.
Our inventors will certainly give in and the increased revenue will soon start rolling into our Federal Treasury. The dramatic inflow of this new revenue will be so immense that the next General Tax Increase will be delayed a whole 27 days.
The Head Patent Guy has already held a meeting with his crack staff and has used a PowerPoint Presentation to lay out these undeniable facts…
- Fact … The Patent Office’s long standing inefficiency is about to become a Revenue Enhancement Bonanza which will certainly increase their annual bonus checks.
- Fact … If they work together to get even slower, they will be able to ensure a never ending spiral of increased revenues and ever bigger bonuses.
- Fact … The first step toward slowing down even more has already been enacted. Afternoon naps are now mandatory for all workers.
- Fact … Effective immediately 25% of all Patent Clerks will be laid off in order to quickly and effectively accelerate the rate of slow down.
- The inventors who pay extra will have their inventions pulled ahead of those who do not, or cannot, pay extra. This will increase the pressure on those who do not, or cannot, pay extra to pay extra.
- The above bullet will mean more people will have to go into our Financial Markets and Loan Sharking Industry for the funds they need to tide themselves over while they wait for their patents to be approved.
- Many inventors will have to go to these same sources to obtain added funds to pay the extra fees which they hope will expedite the ever-slowing approval process.
- The Patent Office will also be able to get “contributions” from the Financial and Loan Sharking Industries. These shrewd businessmen will be more than happy to pay the Patent Office for slowing down their giddy up.
It’s the American Way but it never used to be.
Would I kid u?
