The reason for the lack of patent infringement in a company of this age is that Dr Pepper chose not to patent its famous 23 flavor recipe, but rather to maintain it as a trade secret. This means as long as the company protects the secret, and ensures that, aside from unlawful means, the secret is kept, the company can maintain its exclusivity indefinitely, whereas a patent is limited to twenty years.

Many Americans today many not be the most familiar with ancient Greek and Roman history but our founding fathers certainly were and in “their quest to match the deeds of the ancients the founders became our heros… [t]he founders drove the ancients from their pedestals and occupied their places” (ix). Carl J. Richard seeks to highlight the influence the ancients had on our founders. I believe that Richard is very effective in accomplishing his goal of demonstrating what lessons the founding fathers learned from the greeks and the romans as well as how those ideas shaped the foundations of the American government. He accomplished this through his use of clear and specific examples throughout greek and roman history and he showcases direct connections
