The discussion is not about the defn of monopoly. It’s about patent rights that keep thieves from stealing discoveries. It is analogous to secure facilities to keep out the thieves. Find the definition of patent and what it is for. You never had a patent but you may have had property. Do you not expect to keep thieves out of it? Why don’t you stick with the left wing sites. you are simply not going to cheat people, steal, or beg your way to the next handout without giving something in return. Stop being so childish.
Patents have nothing to do with stealing since ideas are not property. Patents are a legal means of using the threat of force in order to artificially raise prices. They are monopolies. For this reason, the new cancer treatment will not be cheap to patients, even if it is cheap to produce.
