Hold Pharmaceutical Companies Accountable

Strip patent rights of pharmaceutical companies that abuse the right to have them. A patent should be considered a reward for innovation in our free market.

Why is this important?

Pharmaceutical companies should not be allowed to violate FDA regulations and receive a slap on the wrist. Stricter penalties for pharmaceutical companies who violate regulations, promote the unethical distribution of their drugs, and practice false price reporting need to be put in place. Pharmaceutical companies are given a patent for a drug and its specific purpose. If this is violated, in the free market economy we have today, shouldn't that privilege be revoked?
