There is no good reason why patents derived from publicly funded research should be privately held or exist at all for that matter.

Harvard's been sucking on the public teet since forever. Legally and illegally. Time for some comeuppance.

I don't think it's MAGA that you are against. It's conservatism.

What exactly is sane about the public paying for the R&D only for a private entity to own the resultant patent and fleece the public for the product? Why should Harvard own the intellectual property rights of a publicly funded effort?

I'm not on Trump's side.

No decent person is.

 

[Rogue Valley]

More extortion by the Con Man in Chief.

Wait, why would anybody consider you to be conservative? You have nothing in common with conservatism.

Or Lockheed own patents related to the development of military aircraft paid for by the taxpayers?

Apples and oranges.

I know you aren't. You appear to be on the side of the alleged Harvard criminals.

 

[Questerr]

Apples and oranges.

How so? Both are intellectual property developed with taxpayer money.

 

[CaughtInThe]

There were NEVER any small government republicans.

It was all just a lie to get votes.

Nonsense response.
