  At least, when the company goes defunct, they should be forced to sell it to a company that’s required to maintain the upkeep for products using the IP they bought or the government should eminent domain

  So should a lot of research, for public benefit. Medical absolutely, space absolutely.

  The problem with that model is no one acquires immoral levels of wealth, which means those that set policy don’t get as large of bribes.

    It got us to the moon.

    Then we decided to sell off our society for private property under the lie that we’d all benefit.

      OK, good point. Research yes. Somebody still needs to control and manage the things. That concerns me. I’m not imagining a medical /brain implant version of nasa. My problem is when politicians start imposing politics to the situation. I don’t want the governments or private companies dicking around in my brain imposing fad or outrage of the day changes. Standards good, control, not so good.

    For-Profit Medical Corporations would miss out on some lowest effort, unethical, low margins for their extreme profiteering opportunities?
