What is the argument for copyrights necessity? Is it a fallacy, or truth?

Have you seen all those garbage Chinese knockoffs
If we're talking about media - truth. If we're talking about patents etc. they should be protexted for few years to make people have technological progress. Art is useless shit anyway nobody should buy it.

If they were fully copying good products, it wouldn't be garbage nor a problem. If Chinese were just making shit products that are not knockoffs, it would still be a problem. Then your argument is not about copyrights.
money for nothing, content for free

If the government wants to reward technological progress, they can simply give inventors their money. If technological progress is good because it helps the Fatherland, it makes no sense to hold patents of medicine, for example, making it incredibly expensive for the volk.

The copyright wars span several centuries now, there are the more protective old world laws and more liberal new world laws. All that is happening today is the merging of those laws somewhere in between. There is nothing new under the sun.
Basically, humanity is seizing up under the weight of its legal yokes and the entire project will soon fail. Then we can go back to being apes or forward and all be like the Chinese who just copy everything because its already been done before.

>they can simply give inventors their money.
How would they deem which ideas are successful, and how valuable those ideas are? It makes sense to give pharmaceutical companies patent rights (until they expire) because that is exactly what incentivizes innovation in the field.
>>55888952
If we can deem wich ideas are valuable, then there is no problem with such a direct and reasonable reward.
>>55889077
There is no way to do so objectively until the idea is brought to market. There are lots of examples where everyone thought an idea was insane until the originator pushed it through.

Then it doesn't need copyrights. If all it takes is the small delay of a product hitting the market and people's feedback to "deem" it valuable, I can still reward the inventor. The copyrights would increase this delay, and the lack of copyrights would decrease the delay to a few days. Like you said, if art is garbage, then the amount of products to be properly rewarded is manageable.
