Medicine development is almost completely done in Universities with tax money, pharma company budgets are almost completely marketing. So yes, we already do that
It always seems to skirt people by that basically none of the early development is done out of the lust for knowledge and progress by private companies. They see promising work/studies and make it into mass market products that can proceed through clinical trials.
Will you develop medicine for free? Will you do 8+ hour long surgeries for free? Will you teach children at school for free?
Nothing is free, buddy. If sth appears to be free, it’s only because someone sponsors it.

Yeah if I can’t get a yacht out of the deal why would I even bother trying to cure cancer? It makes no logical sense.
