I'd say pretty clearly if you hold back a cure for breast cancer because you can't get investors to put in 10 billion dollars when you're going to make one billion on it but long-term treatments for breast cancer at various stages they're going to make 100 billion on that 10 billion I'd say pretty clearly the incentives are wrong in that case. Because you're enabling research through investment which judges value purely on a monetary basis but it's ignoring the value of human life. So I'd say pretty clear that it's not just a case of the incentives having a limit, the incentives are wrong in that case.
