I could probably sell it for $100/cure and still make good money on it, and almost everyone could afford $100 to be cured. |
Ah, the inspiration for this thread came from a true story I heard about this guy who invented a brain scanner and two companies wanted to buy it. One wanted to give them away for cheap operating on a non-profit basis and the other wanted to make millions off them. In the end he chose the one which made them for everyone. But I thought it would be interesting to see what people would say in a similar hypothetical situation.
