You have the
right to reap the fruits of your labor (i.e. earn a
living), whether tangible or intellectual, under the umbrella of your right to
life without someone else stealing it out from under you. You even have the right to make a
good living under the umbrella of your right to the pursuit of happiness; however, you do not have a right to obscene profit (that which which would infringe on other people's inalienable rights). The exclusivity I referred to is a
right to the extent that its duration does not have an unconscionable impact on the greater good.
