Has anyone noticed the contradictions in Washington's policies towards the
Entertainment Industry and the Pharmaceutical Industry?

We're told that the Entertainment Industry needs extended copyright periods
and strict limits on the rights of consumers to purchase "generic"
entertanment products but the Pharmaceutical Industry is being told that
copyright periods will not be extended and that it should be made easier to
purchase generic drugs...  If Micky Mouse was a drug his copy protection
would have expired in about 50 years ago.
