Invent whatever you choose. Give it to anyone you choose, on any terms you decide. In the meantime, reflect on the fact that roughly 90% of drugs that have lengthened the lives of millions of people around the world have been developed under our present, Franklin-inspired patents system.

Or, would you rather have those millions of lives depend on the cutting edge drugs that have been developed in the socialist and communist nations of the world? I hear they have developed penicillin just about now.

The best health is in the West, which has organized medical research on American lines. The worst health is in the rest of the world, where the research is organized on the lines you apparently prefer. Although you claim to be in favor of good health and long life, the geopolitical reality is that you favor the opposite, ill health and short life.

Although you claim to be in favor of good health and long life, the geopolitical reality is that you favor the opposite, ill health and short life.

The reality is: More than a million people will die in the next year when they needn't.
