Both GPL and CC are a "hack" for a failing system.
Basically you now say: Let's dont fix the system, because i wish to keep
the "hack"
This does not sound like logic to me.

Even if we win, and copyright for non commercial use becomes free there
will still be term for commercial protection.
Within this term, licenses such as GPL and CC can still exist.

If you do not like change, why are you in politics ?
