> Such a country wouldn't get admission to the WTO

As opposed to what we do when we invade and bomb/drone other countries? As opposed to what we did when we engineer coups in resource rich countries? Come on. Let me guess, you're buying into the idea that generics hurt RnD. Let me assure you, having worked briefly in a pharma RnD lab, the bulk of big pharmas expenditures are on marketing and bribes, NOT RnD. Here's a recent headline: http://www.statnews.com/pharmalot/2016/02/22/novartis-south-...

You'll find similar bribery cases with GSK, Pfizer, etc.
