Joe, the "private property" at issue here is an artifact of the patent system.

If you want push for changes to the patent system for future drugs, or for the whole system, but IMO it would not be right for the government to take away the all ready established patents.

Not to be melodramatic or anything, but why is upholding that particular
governmental invention more important than millions of people dying?


If you don't uphold patent rights then there is little incentive to spend any significant amount of money to develop new drugs
