A lot of times I have an idea for an invention that other people might find useful but don't have the time or energy to go through the patent process. There's also no place for me to just go ahead and donate the idea to the public. This suggestion is to create a government that will do just that - accept ideas for inventions, evaluate them, patent them on behalf of the public, and then seek out companies who'd be willing to create the product. Profits could be split evenly between the company's who make the product and the government (the government's portion would go towards funding this department; if anything was left over it could be used to pay down the national debt.

We don't need the government authorized to do any more, they do too much already!
YOU CAN ALWAYS DONATE THE IDEA TO A COMPANY IN THE REALM OF YOUR IDEA. OR TO THE GOVERNMENT. THERE IS NO ONE STOPPING YOU FROM DOING SO.
