Why not?

I don't see the problem.

If someone invents a cure to a horrible disease, they can get a patent on it good for more than 20 years that lets them charge whatever they want. That is exactly the way the system is supposed to work.

I rather suspect that they've got patent applications in the works for both the technology and the business methods, and again that's exactly the way the system is supposed to work.

It used to be called the American Dream, but now it's gone global: find a way to use the system so that you can get paid without having to actually deliver anything, just collect checks as they come in. When someone finds a way to do it, though, the people who were late to the land rush whine.
