Copyright and capitalism in general is fine. It's when billion dollar corporations use political donations to control regulations
Like, imagine a year after Hangover came out. 20 production companies all released Hangover 2.
Imagine it was a movie by a small Indie studio so a big studio paid off the original actors to be in their knockoff.

Capitalism is a scam.
It's an unsustainable system predicted on infinite growth that necessitates unconscionable inequality.
