#1 “missed out”? You mean chose to put humanity before capitalism. There’s a huge difference.

Unfortunately, Jonas Salk created a myth that day by leaving out several crucial details.

As pointed out by Robert Cook-Deegan at Duke University, “When Jonas Salk asked rhetorically “Would you patent the sun?” during his famous television interview with Edward R. Murrow, he did not mention that the lawyers from the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis had looked into patenting the Salk Vaccine and concluded that it could not be patented because of prior art – that it would not be considered a patentable invention by standards of the day.

Salk implied that the decision was a moral one, but Jane Smith, in her history of the Salk Vaccine, Patenting the Sun, notes that whether or not Salk himself believed what he said to Murrow, the idea of patenting the vaccine had been directly analyzed and the decision was made not to apply for a patent mainly because it would not result in one.

The simple moral interpretation often applied to this case is simply wrong.”

Eleanor,
Capitalism has been the greatest benefactor to humanity that's ever existed, pulling billions of people out of misery & poverty and raising their standard of living in every way imaginable. Free trade (or capitalism) is what's allowed humanity and the needs of the common person to be put above those of tyrannical rulers and despots. It's astonishing that so many of those who trash capitalism are the very top benefactors of it who have never endured poverty or lived in a non-free system.
