Firstly don't get me started on this country and stealing, I'm not an America
basher here or anything but truth be told the way we got this country was
through stealing.   
 
Nice red herring, but you're still not making a valid argument.  Are you really trying to equate actions that people took in 1750 with stealing intellectual property in 2001?  Besides, "we've always done it and everyone else does it" doesn't come close to explaining why it's acceptable.  
 And if prices weren't so damn high in the first place, it
probably would tempt less people to make illegal copies.  
 
I guess I'll remember that the next time I put gas in my car.   I'll just steal it.  I mean, the oil companies have plenty of money, right?  and I wouldn't be tempted to steal gas if the price weren't so high.  Using your logic, that makes everything A-OKAY.
