America Invents Act a “Jobs bill”?

To hear the politicians explain it, the recent changes to the patent laws are going to spur job growth.

One may argue whether the changes will spur private sector job growth, but one thing is sure: the Patent Office is hiring!

According to Director Kappos, between 1,500 and 2,000 new examiners will be hired to reduce application backlog.

And in my opinion, this will do more than anything in the entire law to improve things.
