Since the drug has been on the market for 50 years there is no high R&D costs to recover.
If he hasn’t rolled back the prices then action needs to be taken.
IMHO he did this for attention. So lets give him loads of negative attention a la “The Man Without a Nation”. No one attends his parties. No one invites him to a party. When he shows up at a restraint you ask to be moved away from his table. You get the picture? If some other nerd joins him, extend to him the same treatment.
He was within his rights to raise the price. We are within our rights to treat him as a total social outcast.
And this jerk is only going to result in public sentiment demanding even more government control.
I wonder if this drug is produced somewhere else in the world?
***Since the drug has been on the market for 50 years...***
50 YEARS? There should be generics to take up the slack! If not, maybe they can get their drugs from the Cubans!
He may have done this as a ‘sacrifice’ to a big government liberal...to be used as an ‘example’ of why the taxpayer should begin paying for everyone’s ‘health’ care....
He knows that if that happens, he will make out like a bandit. So he is willing to suffer a few slings and arrows now so that he can profit massively later.
I have the same theory about Obama...he is ruling against the will of the people, but doesn’t care. He gladly endures the ridicule because it is worth it to him—because his goal is to destroy America. He will take some bad press if that goal is achieved.
