[pp.int.general] Greens saying Pirate Parties unnecessary

[Glenn Kerbein]

	I have to agree with Stallman on this one. He is correct, "intellectual
property" is a misnomer and a propagandist term.
	Second of all, why do your platforms have to focus on the esoteric? You
can't come up with anything better, or more important to bing to the
political arena?
