Can you morally justify raising the price of a life-saving drug by 5500%?

Yes

87

No

632

Let's suppose for a moment that you suddenly find yourself the proud owner of a swanky new pharmaceutical company and you've just obtained the rights to a life-saving drug. Initially, one could obtain this drug for a reasonably low price. Now that you're in control of it, however, you decide to jack up the price. A lot. A price increase of 5500% to be precise. Could you morally justify your reasons for doing this?

    You're all ignorant. Him jacking up the price doesnt affect anyone personally because people never paid the initial price in the first place. You have health insurance, your health insurance pays that shit. THEY are the ones who suffer not you. Because insurance is mad, they sell the story to the media to make him a villain so you all can be fake mad when in reality he is against insurance & pharmaceutical companies, he did this to give them all the middle finger. If you have no life insurance and cant afford the drug you get it FOR FREE. Besides.. there are literally HUNDREDS of aids drugs, dont like the fact that he jacked up the price of one of them? BUY ANOTHER BRAND. But the general public doesnt know this shit so you get mad for no reason. The media played you all.
