If someone develops a new idea, medicine or process, and that idea, medicine or process has value then it is adding value to the economy. To fail to reward the originator of that idea, medicine or process is to fail to reward technological and creative value development. Such a failure is to disincentivize and stifle development and creative work in your economy. Only Libertarians could be so deluded as to think that is a good outcome.
