The Wright brothers wrote their 1903 patent application themselves, but it was rejected. In January 1904 they hired Ohio patent attorney Henry Toulmin, and on May 22, 1906, they were granted U.S. Patent 821393 for "new and useful Improvements in Flying Machines". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wright_brothers https://youtu.be/pCb3Nc4X95k

36 years to find the patent of one of arguably the most important innovation in human history. Yes please by all means ... Let the Federal Government handle health care.
