The patent system is an important and good concept. With it, many people are prevented from getting stolen from or stealing others' ideas. While this can be very good, and promote further discovery and prevent theft. It is also quite controversial and comes with drawbacks.  

Drawbacks include the costs, time it takes, and the enforcement. Getting a patent may take years and only works in the areas that you get it in. It can also be quite costly, with many fees, including maintenance fees, reissue fees, and more. Often times, patented inventions often generate less revenue than the cost it takes to actually patent it. In addition to this, it can be quite the hassle to enforce, as it can be very time consuming and costly to monitor, track down, and bring any wrong doers to justice for infringement.
