Did he, though? If you look only at the % increase, that looks to be true. However, if you try to think about the big picture-- costs of similar drugs per pill, who actually has to pay that inflated price (not your grandma, for sure), and so on, then it's a lot less clear.
My main question is why the fuck he wanted to buy a drug that isn't under patent. Why didn't he just pay someone to reverse engineer it? Why buy a drug at a price that will cause you to need to jack up the price, even though you will STILL lose money overall?
It doesn't add up, right?
