I commend the above petition to you, patents are now stifling
innovation rather than promoting it, costs of medicines, technology
and software are artificially inflated by them. Genes are being
patented, these are not inventions or innovations but living tissue
that has been manipulated.
When patents were thought of they were to allow the little man to
benefit from his labours, now only big business can afford the
process.
