Senate Holds Hearing on Rare and Neglected Pediatric Diseases

Those who are opposed to exclusive rights because it prevents innovation and provides no benefit to the public really should do their homework. They run about throwing this study from an agenda driven economist or that study from a disgruntled economist as if these fictitious mental exercises that ignore reality are evidence of some kind.
