He’s not a bad guy though. Imo; big pharma charges us insane prices on drugs. He copped a drug comp; resold the drugs to the insurance company for insane Markup; those with no ins or couldn’t afford it he gave it to them for free. Just because he spun around and played the At their own game; they got mad. Tbh I wasn’t even mad at him I applauded him.

In the end it doesn’t cost you anything if the drug = 800 bucks; your insurance covers it. No I s? No worries it’s totes free, if you’re from an ins company he billed you the max rate. Looks like a hero to me

What do you think happens when insurance companies have to pay excessive amounts? Maybe they will lower the premiums to make everyone happy and save money? Or maybe, just maybe it will lead towards more outrageous insurance prices…

Having Insurance isn’t a magic bullet. It’s a shit sandwich that gets covered in more shit. Pharma/The medical industry is taking the nation through the ringer with outrageous costs, rampant greed, and disgusting bloat. Jacking up the price for insurance is an absolutely a terrible move motivated solely by greed and done knowingly of the fact it will screw everyone over more in the long run.
