  Like if an author had a five year old why shouldn’t the kid get royalties if their parents is in an accident?

  Like I said, all it does is prioritize the desires of the dead over the needs of the living. It’s not justified.

  That is the BARE MINIMUM of reason.

  There’s no reason IN THE WORLD for any kind of idea of “intellectual property” to exist once the creator is dead.
