We need regulation to stop patents that aren't actually being used by the filer in a patent. Or if the filer hasn't tried to take it to market.

Couldnt u just use somebody elses patent. Then they can sue. Then they win. Then damages will be calcilated for the patent holder, which should be negligible.
