We can thank the invention of "patents" to exclude real inventors from being compensated for their work.
For example - History has recorded Thomas Edison didn't invent the light bulb.
Sir Humphry Davy invented the "arc lamp" in 1809, which by all accounts is the modern light bulb. What Edison developed was a filament that lasted more than 1000 hours.
It's kind of like making a microwave oven that heats faster... You just reverse-engineered someone else's idea and took credit for it.

And sadly most kids in my daughter's college never mention about Nikola Tesla,
they even don't know who he is, and this thread from AC gave me an idea.
Nikola Tesla was a real contriver.
