The patent system is supposed, intended, to promote progress, and those who benefit from software patents ask us to believe without question that they do have that effect. But programmers' experience shows otherwise. New theoretical analysis shows that this is no paradox. (See  http://www.researchoninnovation.org/patent.pdf.) There is no reason why society should expose software developers and users to the danger of software patents.
