It's not Pfizer's job to safeguard US interests, it's the US Government's. If the US Government wants to ensure reliable supply of medication they need to develop a policy and administrative framework to make that happen.

Well, we can't seem to have it both ways: either the government is allowed to develop and enforce regulations with teeth that protect the general public, or cimpanies are given a free hand to do the right thing and proudly serve the general public responsibly and fairly with the privileges they are given.

Yes, the government should do that. If you get a drug patent and failure to ensure supply causes the patent to be terminated I would bet the behaviors would change quite a bit.

In this case, providing an environmentally safe region for storing critical medications, along with a reasonable amount of security would be an excellent solution. There's ample amounts of both federal lands and national guardspeople who could take that on.
