Strongly agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

Shortening the lifespan of drug patents aligns with distributist principles of decentralization and widespread ownership. By reducing the length of time a company has exclusive rights to a drug, it allows for more competition and potentially lower prices, making essential medicines more accessible to the general population.

Yes

Distributism supports the idea of widespread ownership and decentralization of power.

Slightly disagree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

While distributism values the role of private businesses and innovation, it also emphasizes the importance of the common good and ensuring that essential services are accessible to all. The argument that limiting drug prices would limit investment in research and development may not align with distributist principles, as the focus should be on the well-being of the community rather than solely on profit.
