However, WB, without the money spent on R&D, and the profits necessary to make the R&D worthwhile to those investing the funds, then those new treatments or cures or medicines are not available to anyone. And over time, the costs for new things go down as generic equivalents become available and competition drives down prices.

Okay, so the next time a senior tells me they can't pay for their meds I'll reassure them that someday the cost will trickle-er, lower, and their descendants will be able to! They'll be in Canada or Mexico before I finish giving them the good news.
