Personally I think all medicine should be public domain
Everything should.
Medicine. Internet. Waste disposal.
So you want to reduce innovation and cause creators to not get properly paid for their work? Great idea
lol "innovation" what is this 1925?
how innovative are the cars being produced because they look the same.
half those medicines are publicly funded
the Internet is publicly funded.
this belief of private sector innovation is not as true as they sell it to be.
This. Public institutions do a way better job and are more efficient at most things compared to private companies. It’s just a fact.
Private just makes more money and also you can do ridiculous shit like blow up your own rocket, destroying a landing pad in the process and ignore environmental and labor laws.
So you're just going to ignore the even worse creative theft that would happen under such laws towards artistic talents.
There'd be much less in the way of tv shows or animations.
why do you think that??
