Trademark, Copyright, and Patent rights derive directly from the U.S. Constitution – Article 1, Section 8. Trademark rights derive from the Commerce Clause and Copyright and Patent rights derive from Article 1, Section 8, Clause 8.
Thus, Trademark, Copyright, and Patent rights are no more “completely made up” than any other right that is recognized by the U.S. Constitution. These rights are as valid and real as any in the U.S. and derive from our true founding document.
