Hey what do you know. The fascists have granted another monopoly. Add this to the list of excuses why "capitalism failed" when this version of fascism fails.
Check your Sherman anti-trust act. It's a shell of it's former self after enforcement defunding in the 1980s and Courts rulings ever since to maintain watered-down anti-trust laws.
Before 1980, Exxon Mobil and BP Amoco never imagined merging.
The goal is zero anti-trust regulation and it's proponents are still acting today.
But we still honor Patent laws. Anybody happen to know whether a Patent owner has the legal right to award license to given manufacturer? Last time I checked, patent owners may do this.
It also seems odd that this company is being given some sort of right to research cannabis but THC is still listed as a schedule I substance.
It would be great if the community could get gene sequencing done on a set of cultivars and transferred the IP rights to a super collective, which could then sue corporations that created plants with any aspect of the community cultivars.
It also seems odd that this company is being given some sort of right to research cannabis but THC is still listed as a schedule I substance. Also even if there is an existing patent or one is granted exclusively for a period of time, won't the patent rights expire at some point so the GMO plants could be copied as 'generic'?
This is unfortunately a clear case of our country placing the property rights of corporations above individuals and the lack of a strong institution to do anything about it. Amerika fail.
