    Will you develop medicine for free?

    Medicine development is almost completely done in Universities with tax money, pharma company budgets are almost completely marketing. So yes, we already do that

      Yes, it’s done with tax money, so it’s not free.

      It always seems to skirt people by that basically none of the early development is done out of the lust for knowledge and progress by private companies. They see promising work/studies and make it into mass market products that can proceed through clinical trials.
