You're suggesting that government should supply us with poor, mentally
ill criminals? Someone else seems to be doing a good job of that
already.

He is playing her own game and to his misfortune, he is forced to
stoop very low to match wits with her.

Of course he knows... he just doesn't want to embarrass himself any
further, so he made a funny.

If I was just picking low fruit I would point out Plume is a
facilitator of these evil corporations by litigating patents that
allow them monopoly power in the markets.

Why is Avastin 130 bucks a pill when it costs pennies to produce?

Genetech has the patent on it.

OHhhhhh BURN! LOL!

Except that your nit picking would be out of date. As I've said, I no
longer work for big companies.

Because there's no way to effectively negotiate a lower price.

So you just create small monopolies for guys who want to be big
companies?

So, you think we should abandon the patent process. I guess you need
to read up on why we have one.

... because of patent attorneys.

Nope. It's all about lack of ability to negotiate a better price,
e.g., like letting Medicare do it?
