This is a tough area for me. I think someone should be able to make a living researching and creating drugs. If that's all a company does they have to make money somehow. Admittedly, I have not put much thought past that, so there may be a simple solution. Research grants and other funding can pay salaries for a time, but that's a static income. Idk, I'm interested in how this would work without some amount of markup.

Unless profits means everything past salaries and stuff, then I do mostly agree. However I think there has to be allowance for cash on hand and further investment in infrastructure and all those other fun things needed to run and grow a business.
