If you think this is screwy, drug companies are discovering individual genes in the human genome and patenting them. This way if any drug company wants to develop a drug based on a pateneed gene they must pay royalties. People are patenting the rights to your genetics. Genes possessed by everyone are becoming owned by private individuals. You discover the cure for cancer based on science from one of your genes and you will be infringing on their patent. Capitalism is screwed up. Corporations have unlimited political donating ability now too so things are only gonna get worse.
