I've just happened on a documentary screened on Russia TV (Freeview here in the UK), about the battle between a small Canadian farmer and Monsanto.
I think the fight for freedom is no longer solely against Big Brother. Libertarians should consider Big MD/Big CEO as a major threat, especially since multinational corporations are more powerful than many governments.
And I don't think I'm alone in feeling that patenting life itself is in some way an outrage.

Same team.
yep, IMHO corporatism and capitalism are distinct enough that the case can be made sanely.
