I know they receive tax breaks. I know that the one company that does something great will be famous and stocks will rise. However, they seem to really care about whether something is patentable. Meaning long term income.
There are several news reports where they speak about drugs that could be on the market, saving lives, but are not. Why are these drugs not being made for the masses?
No conspiracy theory, it is about long term income.
