>>54242336
approximately ten years ago when r/wallstreetbets and /biz/ were young, there was this guy Martin Shkreli who somehow became the CEO of a pharmaceutical company at 30 years old and his strategy was to increase the price of all its medicine by 10x to make more money at the expense of sick people who were forced to pay whatever price Martin Shkreli set for their life-saving medicine.

A lot of people on /biz/ and WSB thought he was cool because he was a 30-year-old CEO who was willing to do horrible things to get rich. He started livestreaming and sharing his financial and business knowledge, which made him more popular.

However, even though Shkreli was just doing the exact same thing that every other pharmaceutical company does, he was bragging about it instead of doing it quietly, so the US government decided to make an example out of him. They brought him in front of Congress for a hearing and he was a smug asshole to them. That made them even more mad so they made up some bullshit and put him in jail for 5 years or so.

Now he's out of jail and he still livestreams for anyone who wants to learn more about finance, business, etc.

He pretty much gave the meds for free for uninsured people but those with insurance were charged x50. So he just fucked big companies instead of the common folk, but they had to do something with him so (((they))) reached out to the (((media))) and made a devil of him

he is notorious for making EpiPen's prohibitively expensive.
he went to jail though because he ran a hedgefund, which, in the short term performed poorly, and he took money from his epipen investments to prop up his underperforming hedgefund.
now the thing is, misappropriating money from one company to another is illegal.
However, although he was essentially operating as a ponzi scheme for a little bit, he fixed it by investing better and no one bared any losses.
but he spiked epipen prices to support his failing hedgefund.

Overcharged because insurance would cover most of the cost, and if I recall there were low cost options for people in poverty. His main “crime” was not giving a fuck about public opinion and basically telling all his critics to fuck off. He could have explained everything away in a calm way that made sense, but that wasn’t his style. This was all back when liberals hated the pharmaceutical industry btw, not in current year where they love the pharmaceutical industry.

>> No.54246881

>>54246833
This is more or less it. The onus was on the insurance companies to cover most of the cost due to their policies and he knew this. It wasn’t some effort to fuck over the the little guy so much as it was the pharmaceutical jew. Doesn’t make him a saint because he was eventually brought in on something semi related to penny stock manipulation or some shit.

He paid investors out of his own pocket telling them the company and returns are fine.

Thanks big pharma rep!

The truth is is this nigga is /ournigga/. He didn't screw over people with "life and death" allergies, he found a loophole and FUCKED OVER big pharma. If you couldn't afford the drug, you could apply to GET IT FREE.

Do you naïve, dumb fuckers really think they would have gone after him for screwing over "average people?" Fuck no. He gauged big pharma at their own sleazy game and they hit back, pushing the "average people" narrative... without mentioning that "average people" could apply to get it free.

Don't worry, I though he was bad too when I was a NPC.

This is the truth.
Also, back when he was arrested for joking about Hillary being involved in killing people (Clinton murders) the democratic party as a whole and Hill's faction in particular were looking for an easy win after getting btfo by Trump.

I don't like what Shkrelli did, but I don't think what happened to him was fair either. He did what every broker on Wallstreet was doing, and he did what ever pharma exec was doing. It's just that he worked his way up from having parents who were janitors so his Senator daddy or whatever couldn't protect him from getting prosecuted for what everybody else was doing.

It's also worth nothing that the drug was fucking shit and literally kills people, and that it needs a replacement, and keeping the price low just so insurance companies can save a few dollars (who pay the cost) would just be perpetuating this shitty drug even more.
