Sure.
So the idea is basically you feel that someone should be compensated for general ideas that someone utilizes to make a lot of money from, right?
Why would that have anything to do with cultures? For example, say that Taylor Swift has a family that doesn't at all believe in sharing wealth, and Taylor Swift has a living-below-the-poverty-line sister who actually came up with a lot of ideas that Taylor based music on. Should Taylor's sister be compensated?
