Greed, lies, and Shkreli’s smug “performance”: Lawmakers go ballistic

Shkreli can be everything in the world. He is irrelevant but the story told convinces people that the only way to rectify injustice is the state to interfere and control.

I mean the story as it is told in the publication. The point is very obvious. Greedy capitalists make a lot of money on people's suffering. Pharmaceutical industry and health care in general are way too important to let capitalist sharks abuse them. The only way to justice is state control. Could not be simpler.

I hope the solution will be as you suggest. But I know a little of history and it tells me that people tend to make simple solutions with far reaching consequences. In any event I mentioned socialist Sanders and price control ideas lie in the territory of his mindset. Let us see.
