But that work isn’t only magically able to be done by corporations. If pharmaceutical corps like Gilead and others didn’t rake in billions per year and were taxed properly (i.e. no more rentier incomes), that same work could be done in the open by NIH and others. Why are people so keen on state granted monopolies (patents) when it can be done open source?
