>Like if I see some art in a museum and it inspires me to create some of my own, I would need to pay a licensing fee to the original artist?

Nope, humans are admitted for free :).

>And what about the artists that inspired them? There is no art in the world that sprang fully formed from one single person, without any influences.

As long as you are a human you get to be inspired all you want :)

You seem very invested in licking the boot of the trillion dollar corporations. Your fellow humans are concerned.

Isn't it interesting that the EXACT second that copyright law impedes billion dollar corporations it is thrown out the window, really makes you think huh?
