"I want things for free" isn't a good argument against copyrights. Without copyrights any random asshole can sell copies without giving money to the creators.
Intellectual Property laws are an abomination but this meme is a very young child's understanding of the issue.
What we need instead of copyright law is anti-plagiarism law. Make it a crime to claim you created something you didn't. With current copyright laws plagiarism is legal and politicians copy whole PDF theses and don't get punished at all.
