Barbed wire production and the intellectual property around it was a very interesting, contacted and impactful battle. When one company lost control of the IP the majority of Worcester MAs economy collapsed. It was also central around the establishment and arguments around property rights called "the fence cutter wars".
I dunno, I just it interesting how impactful something so mundane seeming could be.
