I'm not under any illusion that this one guy is the head of some pharmaceutical hydra and that lopping the head off will stop or fix anything. Three more Shkreli's would just pop up in his place. I'm just flabbergasted that someone is legitimately defending him. But I'm not at all flabbergasted that you're the one doing it.

As I've decided to leave the mafia forum, I have two questions for everyone:

1. How does the current discussion compare to past discussions in this thread in terms of entertainment?
2. What are the most entertaining discussions that have occurred in this thread? I want highlights.

Because wanting his head on a pitchfork is not remotely constructive.

I must have been inactive and not caring about the game as much as others to know anything about the lion king thing

You would jump the backyard wall dressed as Zingbot and murder every cast member of Big Brother 19 (except Kevin and Josh) if given the chance, but you are ride or die with Martin Shkreli.

I'm not ride or die for Martin, this just happens all the fucking time:

There were also 3 other large companies that are using the same business model that he did.

The mentality of "hehe fuck yea we got him!!!" Does no good, you think you came to a win, when in fact the government has done nothing to stop the business practice.

I'd argue if anything he helped with the problem with his candor and up frontness about the practice by bringing it to light and making it go viral.

I'll agree with this edited point, but dude is still a cunt and if he were to rot in prison (he won't) I wouldn't lose any sleep.

no gimmick

Igors right people do this shit all the time and no one bats an eye but because this guy is such a raging douche nozzle the government went after him and everyone is celebrating like it's the end of fucking assholes doing fucking asshole things.

It's like when the fucking economy collapsed in 2008 and the only person that went to jail was Bernie Madoff and the only reason he did was because he stole money from millionaires and billionaires.

And everyone is all like "yeahhh fuck him, we got one" while the people that actually fucked shit up are still just out free walking around.

Sending one person to jail doesn't fix the broken system.

No, it doesn't fix the problem, but it does remove one person from the system.

But he broke no laws in terms of the price raising. Again, the only reason he's going to face any time (probably very little) is he pissed off some very rich people and has deep pockets.
