a. #olicy $he rationale behind prohibiting the % of facts stems from the factthat they are too important to be sub&ect to % limitations giving too powerfula monopoly. $he 'promotion of progress which is the purpose of intellectual property protection under the constitution re)uires raw material to be ableto be built upon i.e. the building blocks. *imilarly, under patent law, the patenting of discoveries of nature is forbidden because doing so would limitthings that occur in our environment to e+clusive use and control. $he pointis, that the I# laws are not intended to reward inventors authors etc. Rather,they are intended to incentivize them to create and innovate. $here isnothing innovative about reiterating that which already e+ists.

b. !dditionally, if facts were allowed to be %, it would be virtually impossible to protect because facts are inherently similar. n the other hand, it can beargued that the collection of facts is so important to the growth of the public

knowledge that % protection should be e+tended to them- this is especiallytrue where signicant work or 'sweat of the brow is involved in researchingthe facts. /owever, this argument seemingly does not have the neededveracity to compel protection in comparison with the general interestsfavoring the free01ow of the building blocks needed to innovate in the future.*imilarly, the 'sweat of the brow argument was e+plicitly re&ected in 6eist for its lack of veracity.
