And how much of that money is for fake foreign brands, sucy a fake Rolex watches, Cartier purses, Yves St. Laurent shirts, Mercedes parts, etc? Don't american (at least the leadership) understand that amercans are a net looser on on trade and what the IP Czar would be doing would be protecting the foreing brands and their ridiculous rip-off prices? Then, most fake products are made in foreign countries, where americans have no jurisdiction. Overall, the idea of an IP Czar is good simply becaise it will be a big flop and that will get americans into thinking that IP protection is not the way to an improved life for the average american, who owns no IP rights and pays dearly for products protected by copyrights, patents and tradenemes. Perhaps then americans will realize that it is all a gimmick of the upper crust of society to scam consumers who live beneath the crust. BTW, there is no proof that protection of IP is the best alternative to induce creators to create more better creations. “Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) is at work on his own bill, designed to ensure that counterfeit goods, estimated to cost the U.S. economy 750,000 jobs and $250 billion annually, are caught at customs.”

If you have enough money, you then have the power to create new government branches. How much longer until Bill Gates creates an operating systems czar, or even some less savory individual creating a prostitution czar. I thought that the word "czar" was Russian for king. I suppose the bush administration has decided to take a break from reality for the summer. (more so than usual). This is getting rediculous.
