Martin Shkreli admits to raising the price of a drug to make money, and people get mad at him. This article says the drug Daraprim cost $18 per pill, but I've seen other articles claim it cost $13.50, so who knows what the actual cost of it is. In any case, he raised the prices up to $750 per pill because he could. It's totally legal for him to do it. People get upset at this one guy because he is actually honest about how the drug industry works. There's a bunch of meds being ridiculously priced, and yeah, it's a jerk move, but why are people getting so riled up by what this one guy did? Why not get upset tat the whole pharma-industry?
