I can't read that article because the Post demands that I sign in. But is this about that former boy wonder raising the cost of some drug to astronomical sums and his successors or is this a whole new case?

If only more people would ditch greed as a motivator.

The Post gives some number of free reads before pay walling the site.

I believe the articles are viewable in Google's cache, and I suspect many paywalls will let you in if you change your browser User Agent to something matching Google's bot. How is left as an exercise for the reader.

Different, Senators daughter made CEO, takes company to Netherlands, pay raise from 2.5 mill/yr to close to 19 mil/year.

Google EpiPen, Mylan, Heather Bresch. I'll find another article.

Yeah, I heard about this. This will likely result in a slap of the wrist at most. Her senator father will protect her. I hate this country.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Probably some check made it to his desk in the meantime.

Quote:For example, Blumenthal, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and a co-sponsor of the 2013 schools bill, asked Bresch in a letter Monday to explain the “shocking price increases.”

However, in an interview Tuesday, he was less eager to talk about Bresch herself or the prospect that she might soon be testifying to the committee.
