There is plenty of reason for invention. Make life better. That's the incentive. When money is the driver of incentive in society you're already starting from a complete wrong position. IP law actually stiffles invention and is far from fair. Just because I invented an idea 1 second faster than when you would have invented it (an exaggeration) doesn't mean I should get 10-15 years of a monopoly on it.

People will still invent things. Oh maybe they wouldn't invent mindless music and stupid tv shows and movies and other degenerate things but actual beneficial industrial innovation would still be invented because they improve productivity and efficiency. People would still make art and stories and some plays and movies etc... Because it's not about the money. I think you'd see less media but more quality media.

If you work to develop something that makes Amazon better, first of all that's Amazon's property, didn't you read your employer's agreement?

Anyway, yeah you do it to get promoted in the company and a higher paying job. You do it to reduce your workload. My first job I got out of university I automated everything I could and ended up turning a 10 hour job into a 2 hour job then I played video games and watched football at work for the remainder of the 10 hour shift.

I'm not a commie but I'm against profit being the driving force of a society. Morality and striving toward being moral should be the main goal. People should want to invent because that's a reflection of their good character. Lazy dumb slobs with poor moral values should just get shit jobs anyway. They aren't going to invent anything anyway.

Why would I want to help a terrible company? We should be seeking to bring Amazon down not prop it up.
