Drug Dealers to get new rules in the U.S.A.

The standard patent length for drugs IS 20 years. And that is quite often extended through minor tweaking of the formula which is then patented.

And, sadly for JeuneMaitre's argument, most pharmaceutical research at the moment is not guided towards major life-saving drugs. It is guided towards the lucrative areas of mitigating the 'first-world' problems caused by obesity, high-blood pressure, etc.
And you may call it righteousness

I know nice from right.
