Re: Re: Do You Want Inventions To See The Light Of Day?
"Now then, as to patent law, one thing is that natural processes such as mutation aren't supposed to be patentable but still the patents were awarded."
The mutation is not what was patented.
"People who have this mutation don't get that choice, do they?"
Before the test was invented they had no choice except to wait and see if it affected them. Today they have a choice to test for the problem.
That test cost a great deal of money to create and it represented huge risks.
If those who invested in the creation of the test are stiffed you and bet that no one is going to invest to invent others.
So, is the public going to agree to raise taxes to fund these inventions, or will congressional gridlock going mean that these inventions completely dry up?
Regarding "Mr Robertson, the inventor, licensed it in Canada at a reasonable rate while he wanted a ridiculous amount to do the same in the United States. Guess what? He lost that market and the money that went along with it"
Which is the way the system is supposed to work. The same applies to genetic testing.

Tell that to someone who is dying. Art is interesting if one is not concerned about their emanate demise but it is most certainly not a substitute for life.

Good business is always built on delivering fair value and good service. Kmart used to deliver fair value, at least on some things but fell down on service. Sears fails on both counts.
In business to business deals good relationships are built on equitable mutual profit.

That creates opportunities for entrepreneurs to step in and take business from large entities.

"@151 and i totally agree i've never heard of anyone start out going, oh gee i feel creative or inventive better check the patent database and like make sure i'm not "infringing"
Doing a clearence search to ensure that you are not infringing is not what I was talking about in this case.
1) It can be worthwhile to read patents to get inspiration. You look at different approaches to solving a problem and in many cases an inventor will see a better way to solve one or more problems.
2) You simply have a flash of genius and to flesh the idea out you review patents. In the process the inventor gets a pretty good idea of what has already been done and even more important reading about what has been done often allows the inventor to see how their idea can be expanded.
The patent database is a treasure trove of knowledge in its own right. Studying others patents is much better than reading a book written by an academic who usually does not have any real insight. Patents contain the thoughts of the best and brightest in a field and to ignore them is a terrible waste.

Online patent databases existed long before Google.
Not only that, no inventor in their right mind uses Google to research their invention because what they search for would give Google a very good idea of what their invention might be.
