United *World of Fuck This Guy

Not to mention, single handily turned a lot of political spotlight on the pharmaceutical industry and it's practices prompting congressional hearings, and investigations. And having those congressional hearings be exposed as absolute theater and how utterly incompetent and incapable congressmen really are.

The guy loves being the villain. And he's trolling the entire establishment. The New Yorker's got it right:

"Even so, [Elijah] Cummings acted as if Shkreli were the only thing preventing a broken system from being fixed. “I know you’re smiling, but I’m very serious, sir,” he said. “The way I see it, you can go down in history as the poster boy for greedy drug-company executives, or you can change the system--yeah, you.” Cummings has been in Congress since 1996, and he is a firm believer in the power of government to improve industry through regulation. And yet now he was begging the former C.E.O. of a relatively minor pharmaceutical company to “change the system”? It seemed like an act of abdication."

The Daraprim saga has as much to do with the Food and Drug Administration as with Shkreli: although the drug’s patent expired in the nineteen-fifties, the F.D.A. certification process for generic drugs is gruelling enough that, for the moment, whoever owns Daraprim has a virtual monopoly in America.
