He has a point, although I wouldn't go on and say they aren't profitable. The reason they companies are profitable is because they have a 10 year window to sell their new drug before anyone can make a generic. When you buy a name brand, you are paying for the research and money put into making that drug, not just the cost of the ingredients. If they allow any company to copy a new drug, then companies would have no incentive to research for new drugs and nothing new will ever come out to the market again.

Edit: I would like to add that I do agree new drugs should be cheaper, however letting anyone copy a new drug is NOT the answer. Maybe allow the company to re-cope its initial investment into the drug plus 5% or 10% on top of that. Once that has been reached or 10 years(which ever comes first), then open the drug to generics.
